However, responsiveness in collaboration with our partners and counterparts is now very high.
UNICEF is currently leading the "clusters" (thematic areas of coordination of humanitarian agencies), education (with Save the Children) and Nutrition and the specific section of child protection.
UNICEF actions first start after the earthquake
