When Tarik Hassan intriduced himself (working with SDC/UNICEF in Ethiopia), he mentioned he was particularly involved in drought situations. The FEWS NET website – http://www.fews.net is particularly useful in looking at drought, food security, and, sometmes associated conflict situations, across parts of Africa (as well as Haiti, Yemen, Afghanistan). i would be interested in Tarik’s (and others) comments on the applicability of the slow-onset DRMC & DRR diagrams, as these relate to drought. . .
