On the November 2nd 2011, William and Kate visited Unicef’s Emergency Supply Centre in Copenhagen, Denmark.
Their trip aimed to put the spotlight back on the desperate humanitarian crisis in East Africa, caused by drought, high food prices and conflict in Somalia. As a result, over 32,0000 children are severely malnourished and without immediate help, they risk starving to death.
