Helping drought-affected people protect their livelihood in Somalia

Rural communities in Somalia are hit hard by the severe drought the country is facing. This is causing them irreversible losses and threatening both their lives and livelihood.

With generous finding from USAID, FAO is scaling up the efforts in Beletweyne with focus on food security improvement in drought affected areas, particularly the rural areas. Families are receiving seeds to help them regrow and unconditional cash transfers to help them cover short term immediate needs.
