1.0 Background

Decades of conflict, high burden of disease outbreaks, climate shocks and increasing poverty are devastating the people of Somalia. Despite progress in recent years, the compounding impacts of these shocks continue to erode coping strategies and undermine resilience against future crises. Conflict, insecurity, and drought have forced hundreds of thousands of people to flee their homes in 2022 and are expected to remain key drivers of displacement in the coming years.
