In July 2021, YouTube set all unlisted videos uploaded before 2017 to private (unless the channel owner had opted out). In the weeks leading up to this change, Archive Team archived many pre-2017 unlisted YouTube videos. If this video was uploaded before 2017 and has gone private, there is a chance that a 360p archived version can be viewed on archive.org via the site's Wayback Machine as follows: 1. Enter the YouTube URL in the Wayback Machine form or click on the following link: https://web.archive.org/web/20210000000000*/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rpy0-5CQEP8 2. Right-click on a blue entry in July in the calendar. 3. Click 'Copy link address'. 4. Paste the copied link address into your web browser's address bar and press enter.
Description: This film was made in 2011 during the East Africa food crisis. Baby Umi, whose recovery became a powerful symbol of hope and possibility, died on 18 June 2013 after a short illness exacerbated and made fatal by early malnutrition. She was two years and two months old. The thoughts of everyone at Save the Children are with her devastated family, and we will honour her memory by fighting ever harder to end malnutrition and to prevent any child, anywhere, dying needlessly from hunger or illness.
