Climate Performance of the Gu 09 Rains
  • Gu 09 Seasonal Rains
  • Start on time (late March/ early April)
  • Ended early - in mid May in many parts of the
    country
  • Overall Performance - mixed, but largely below
    normal, especially in key pastoral regions of the
    north and central
  • Areas of Poor Rainfall
  • Hiran, Galgadud, Mudug, Sool, Nugal, Togdheer,
    Sanaag and parts of Galbeed
  • Parts of Lower Juba, North Gedo, and northern
    parts of Bakool
  • Areas of Near Normal Rainfall
  • Bay, Middle Juba, Lower and Middle Shabelle
  • Parts of Bakool, and south Gedo
  • Hagaa Seasonal Rains
  • Good hagaa rains in Juba, and Shabelle and parts
    of Bay regions
  • Juba and Shabelle planted off season crop (maize
    and sesame).
  • Shabelle Juba River Levels - below normal
    rainfall in Ethiopian highlands
  • Rain failure in northern Kenya leading to
    abnormal livestock in-migration into Juba

Civil Insecurity
  • Civil Insecurity Trends (Jan. July 09)
  • Precarious and mixed situation (Jan. April)
  • Slight improvement in some areas, but further
    deterioration in other areas
  • Deterioration Since May 09
  • Worsened in several areas of southern and central
    Somalia including Mogadishu, Belet Weyne, Elbur
    and Hara-dhere
  • With significant impact on both urban and rural
  • Fresh fighting exploded in Mogadishu between
    insurgents and the Transitional Federal
    Government (TFG),
  • Worst fighting seen in months, causing both
    civilian deaths and massive displacement within
    the country and towards refugee camps of Kenya
  • Main impact is in the main towns and on
    humanitarian operations

  • Ongoing Likely to Increase
  • Direct Impacts
  • Deaths, Injuries, human rights abuses
  • Destruction of Assets (Public Private)
  • Increased Population Displacement 1.4 million
    IDPs (40 increase since Jan. 09)
  • Direct targeting of humanitarian and reduction of
    aid workers and responses
  • Indirect Impact
  • Disruptions of trade within the country and
    across regional borders (for example
    Ethiopia-Somalia) and likely price increase
  • Restrictions of livestock migration between
    clans boundaries in Central/ Hiran/parts of M.
    Shabelle and difficult of the natural resource
    sharing (water, pasture and grazing)
  • Further restrictions of humanitarian space
  • Declining social support among livelihoods and
    wealth groups

Civil Insecurity
  • Deterioration Since May 09
  • Resource-based conflict between clans and
    sub-clans, especially in drought areas (e.g.
    Central)
  • Improved Access and security situation of the
    ordinary people improved in some areas
    (e.g. L. Shabelle)
  • Continued Incidents of sea piracy have since
    January, despite multinational naval forces and
    efforts of the local people

12
Civil Insecurity Most Likely Scenario (July- Dec.
09)
  • Increased Likelihood of further Confrontation
    between different religious forces and TFG and
    different clans
  • Increased localized civil insecurity and clan
    tensions
  • Increased resource based conflicts, banditry
    and marine piracy
  • Kenyan border closure affecting IDP population
    movement and cross border trade mainly cattle and
    other commodities
  • Main Areas of Risk Mogadishu, Bay, Bakool,
    Middle and Lower Shabelle, Hiran, Galgadud,
    Mudug including Galkacyo, Gedo and Juba regions
  • Main Impact Mainly urban areas and trade
    movements in conflict areas, more limited direct
    impact on rural populations.

Impact of Gu 09 Performance on Gender
  • During normal seasons most pastoral activities
    (e.g. looking after animals, fetching water and
    firewood, sale of livestock products and food
    purchase) are done by women, while these are
    managed by men during dry seasons
  • Huge livestock migration (including lactating
    animals) in search of pasture and water resulted
    in family splitting with women and children
    remaining behind
  • Jidbaale, July09
  • Qandhicilay, July09
  • Jidbaale, July09
  • Abandoned women and children in the drought
    affected settlements, Hawd of Sool, July 09

45
Continued
  • Main effects on women
  • Lack of milk production/consumption, affecting
    the nutritional status of women and children as
    evidenced by nutritional surveys ( critical to
    very critical situation in Gedo, Central/Hiran,
    northern Bakool)
  • Loss of control on the income from productive
    activities, such as livestock product crop
    sales
  • Lack of access to the social support for women
    left behind
  • Increased burden due to fetching water, fuel and
    wood from long distances

Nutrition Nutrition Information Sources Gu 09
(April July)
  • Nutrition Surveys
  • 33 detailed nutrition surveys conducted (All
    FSNAU includes, 23 SMART, 4 LQAS, 5 exhaustive)
  • 17 focused on repeating livelihood level surveys
    from 6 and 12 months ago for South Central
  • 3 focused on concerning areas in northwest /
    northeast from Deyr analysis
  • 4 focused on district / regional (Belet Weyne,
    Adale, Galgadud Mudug)
  • 8 focused on IDP populations (Hargeisa, Berbera,
    Burao, Garowe, Gardo, Galkahyo, Bossasso, Afgooye
    Merka)
  • 1 focused on vulnerable urban populations
    (Bossasso)
  • Rapid Assessments using MUAC (137 sites 11,904
    children 6-59months)
  • Predominantly, NW. NE, Mogadishu Belet Weyne
  • Conducted in 46 urban centres (n4740)
  • Conducted in 91 rural settlements (n7164)
  • Health Centre Monitoring
  • Collected from 100 health centres from all
    regions (irregular in places e.g. Bakool)
  • Related Selective Feeding Centre Data
  • Information from partners Central, Hiran,
    Bakool, Bay, Juba and Mogadishu patchy and
    limited due to interrupted programming e.g. IMC,
    ACF

Summary of Key Findings
Northwest Confirmation of improvement in West
Golis from Very Critical to Serious. Critical in
East Golis and Guban Karkar. Serious with risk
to deterioration in other areas, still concerns
IDP. Hot spot in south Toghdeer
Northeast Deterioration to Critical in Guban
Karkar and Serious in Nugal. IDP populations
remain Very Critical.
Central Hiran Sustained Critical in Addun, and
Hawd (slight improvement in Hawd but not sig.)
Cow pea belt and Coastal Deeh stable at Serious.
Hiran sustained Critical in riverine and Very
Critical (deterioration) in agro pastoral.
Bay/ Bakool Bay agropastoral deterioration to
Very Critical, Bakool agropastoral improvement to
Serious and Bakool Pastoral sustained Very
Critical.
Shabelles Sustained Serious in IDPs and riverine
slight deterioration (not sig) to Critical in
Agropastoral. Rapid MUAC assessment shows Very
Critical in Mogadishu.
Gedo Sustained Very Critical in pastoral
riverine. Slight improvement to Critical in
agropastoral
Juba Deterioration to Very Critical in
agropastoral and pastoral likely linked to
disease outbreak stable in riverine at Serious

Summary
  • South / Central
  • Overall mixed picture, still high levels of
    nutritional vulnerability,
  • Particular concern over areas with Very
    Critical, Gedo, Juba, Bay, Bakool, parts of
    Hiran and Mogadishu in many areas more likely
    linked to disease rather than food access
  • Lack of further deterioration in Central likely
    linked to humanitarian interventions however
    populations still vulnerable
  • However significant decreasing humanitarian
    space for agencies to meet to provide programmes,
    fewer partners risk factor for further
    deterioration e.g. Central Bakool
  • Northwest/ Northeast populations
  • Overall mixed picture
  • West Golis recovery likely linked to returning
    livestock, increased access to milk and
    humanitarian interventions
  • East Golis Guban/ Karkar now of concern due to
    Critical rates
  • Deterioration in Sool, Nugal and Hawd likely as
    a result of decreasing food security
  • All IDP populations continue to be very
    nutritionally vulnerable
  • More opportunities for response improvement in
    vaccination coverage due to CHD

Major contributing cases continue to be disease
(esp AWD) due to WASH deficiencies, poor IYCF,
and limited health services exacerbated by poor
dietary quality
Major contributing cases for IDPs continue to be
disease, poor IYCF, and limited health services
exacerbated by poor dietary quality - for rural
areas more linked to food insecurity

Populations in Crisis
  • Comparison of Deyr 08/09 and Gu 09
  • HE increased from 680,000 to 775,000 (13
    increase)
  • Primarily due to increase in HE in Central, Hiran
    and Bakool
  • Off-set by reduction of HE in L. Shabelle
  • AFLC increased from 535,000 to 640,000 (19
    increase)
  • Primarily due to increase in AFLC in north

Implications for Actions
  • Humanitarian Access
  • Actions to increase humanitarian space and safety
    to ensure that growing number of populations in
    need, receive assistance
  • Emergency Humanitarian Assistance To Save Lives
  • Targeted to areas livelihood groups identified
    in HE
  • Targeted to areas livelihood groups identified
    in Critical Very Critical Nutrition
  • Increased attention to areas where past/current
    needs exceed response
  • Scale-up in HE areas continuing to deteriorate
    (Central, Hiran, M. Shabelle, Bakool)
  • IDP and Urban populations identified in HE and
    with high rates of malnutrition
  • Emerging rural HE areas in the North (Togdheer
    Agro-pastoral Sool Plateau Pastoral)
  • Emergency Livelihood Support To Save Livelihoods
    and Prevent Deterioration to HE
  • Priority both in areas livelihood groups in
    AFLC, but also in HE
  • Scale-up of emergency livelihood support in
    the south (L M Shabelle, Gedo, Bakool)
  • Scale-up of emergency in northern drought
    affected areas
  • Poor and most vulnerable urban populations that
    are not able to cope with prolonged high food and
    nonfood prices
