Drought, high food prices, and conflict have lead to famine in many regions of Somalia. The United Nations held an emergency meeting to tackle these issues. But is it really going to change anything or will the world continue to turn a blind eye on deaths of millions in Africa? Follow Kristine on Twitter at http://twitter.com/Frazzie

This short film features people in Kenya who have seen the price of staples such as maize, beans and oil soar in the last two years. Many families are now getting by on only one meal a day. In the film, one woman says that she often misses her meals altogether so she can feed her children. Concern is responding to this crisis. In the Kerio Valley, we have successfully piloted a programme that uses mobile phone technology to give cash to the most vulnerable families so they can buy food. Marsabit and Kalacha we are working with partner agency Community Initiatives Facilitation and Assistance (Cifa) to help people manage the effects of drought.
