KEY DEVELOPMENTS

  • A post-gu seasonal assessment found deteriorating food security conditions across Somalia, with an estimated 5 million food-insecure people countrywide, according to the USAID-funded Famine Early Warning Systems Network (FEWS NET) and the Somalia Food Security and Nutrition Analysis Unit (FSNAU). As of September, more than 1.1 million people were experiencing Crisis—IPC 3—or Emergency—IPC 4—levels of acute food insecurity, an approximately 200,000 person increase since February.4

  • In FY 2016, the U.S. Government (USG) provided more than $186 million to address the immediate needs of conflict-affected and vulnerable populations in Somalia. USG humanitarian funding supports food assistance; agriculture, health, nutrition, and water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) interventions; and critical services for refugees.
