West and East of Gedweyne town are access and the situation is calm. Belethawa is reported to be accessible and to have no incident hampering the operations in the past month. Access beyond 10km south of Belethawa town is restricted due to military operations between the Federal Government and anti-government forces. However, the road between Dolow and Belethawa is accessible.

Location to the North of Luuq town are accessible up to 25km while humanitarian actors can access at least 11km to the East of Luuq town. In Garbaharey; Accessibility in the district is limited to a radius of 12km from the town. Almost all areas and directions of the district especially from Belethawa and Elwak have been have restricted access following the El Ade incident. Access in Burdhubo district was only limited within the town. Bardhere district is said to be partially accessible. Access is limited to a radius of 12km from Bardhere town. Elwak district currently has limited access due to the ongoing military operations. Access is limited to villages along the Kenya- Somalia boarder. El Nino floods update/ planning Riverine locations in Belethawa, Dolow and Luuq districts experienced late planting. More than 60% of the farmers did not plant. This was mainly attributed to El Nino Early warning Campaigns carried out by Local Authorities and Humanitarian actors in the affected districts. However, overall performance of the Deyr rains in the Region were below average. There is limited pasture in the rangelands. These districts are likely to face long droughts before the next Gu rains. Consequently, pastoral herders have started migrating their livestock to dry grazing areas in Bay, Lower Juba and Middle Juba regions. The three districts have experienced migration of pastoral and agro-pastoral communities to IDP camps due to drought and conflict (related to military operations) in their respective districts. Ongoing and Planned Responses NRC: has provided tractor hours to 130HH in Dolow and Luuq districts (Surgudud-30HH, Garsale-20HH, Kabasa 30HH, and Gedweyne-50HH). Word Vision -Somalia- have rehabilitated canal totalling to 2.5Km long in 7 villages within Dolow District. During the next month, WV shall provide farm implements (animal driven ploughs, rippers, ryders etc benefiting 100HH coupled with Nutrition Programme in Elwak, Beletahwa, Dolow and Luuq districts. IOM: Shall provide cash relief to 250HH in Garbaharey district. The program started in December 2015 and shall end in May 2016. Each beneficiary will receive USD 85. Beneficiary registration exercise is now completed. CFW activities are ongoing in Bura, Cad Alow and Al Jama villages benefiting 150HH through construction of feeder roads. NAPAD: is conducting a school feeding programme in Luuq, Dolow and Belethawa Districts. They will also launch a livelihood programme in Elwak district in the next month. P a g e 2 | 3 160127_GEDO_MEETING_MINUTES COOPI: Has provided seeds (maize and Cow peas) to 361 farmers in Oda (Belethawa district), Sadumay and Dyax( Dolow) villages who did not plant in Deyr season due to El Nino campaigns. A total of 76Ha of tractor hours provided to the same number of farmers in the respective villages. COOPI plans to provide at least two rounds of fuel vouchers to 361 farmers between February and March to support off season planting.

Only few populations had started returning to their respective homes. There is need to carry out rapid needs assessment in the town to establish the populations in need. There being no other business the meeting was adjourned by the Chair. P a g e 3 | 3 160127_GEDO_MEETING_MINUTES .

  • Drought Response Plan June - December 2019
    DROUGHT June - December 2019 RESPONSE PLAN ISSUED 20 May 2019 SOMALIA Photo: WFP Somalia DROUGHT RESPONSE PLAN JUNE - DECEMBER 2019 PEOPLE TARGETED REQUESTED (US$) OPERATIONAL PARTNERS 4.5M 710.5M 235 Situation Overview Two years after the prolonged 2016/2017 drought destroyed livelihoods and displaced almost one million Somalis - but also triggered a massive and successful scale up in humanitarian response to avert famine - severe climatic conditions, combined with other persistent drivers of humani- tarian crisis, armed conflict, protracted and continued displacement and a spike in evictions of internally displaced persons are again pushing Somalia towards a major humanitarian emergency. The combined impact of the initial, and potentially complete, failure of the 2019 Gu’ rains (April-June), which followed a poor 2018 Deyr season (October-December), and abnormally hot, dry conditions during the 2019 Jilaal season (January-March) has caused widespread crop failure and accelerated decline in livestock productivity, rapidly pushing communities in the worst-affected areas into food insecurity crisis phase, or worse. The signs of crisis, such as irregular pastoral migration coupled with deteriorating livestock body conditions and reduction in milk production, increased displacement due to drought and increases in drought-related disease, are already widely observed. Out of 5.4 million expected to be acutely food insecure by July, 2.2 million will be in severe acute food insecurity conditions (IPC 3 and above), a 40 per cent increase from

  • Building Resilient Communities in the Face of Climate Change Through Community-Based Approaches in Somalia
    BUILDING RESILIENT COMMUNITIES IN THE FACE OF CLIMATE CHANGE THROUGH COMMUNITY-BASED APPROACHES IN SOMALIA Abdullahi Sheikh Abdisalam, 50-years old farmer and the father of 9 children collects watermelon from his farm in Luuq district of Gedo Region, Somalia. Photo: Mohamed Bashir/NRC. Published by Abdikarim Ali, BRCiS NRC Communication and advocacy coordinator Luuq, also known as Luuq Ganaane, is one of the oldest districts of Gedo region of Jubba land state of Somalia. It locates at the bend of Juba River, where the Juba river flows down from north to south in a horseshoe shape. The district borders Ethiopia and Rabdure (Bakool Region) to the North, Wajiid District (Bakool), and Berdaale District (Bay Region) District to the East, Garbaharey District to the South and Beled Hawa and Dolow Districts to the West. The district has an estimated geographical area of 8,258 km2 and an estimated population of about 65,000 people living in the Luuq town, but the total population of the district is estimated at 185,703 people. Luuq has a hot climatic condition with little rainfall. The temperature is always high, and the areas are cyclically tropical by drought and the floods, which adversely affect the farm-based livelihoods. Several consecutive seasons of rain failure have led failed crop harvesting driving many people into food insecurity. Like any other sector, agriculture has adversely been affected by Somalia’s lack of functional and robust government in more than thirty years. Gedo region, in particular, Luuq district was severely affected, which was one of Somalia’s food basket areas.

  • Gedo Region – Situation Analysis
    Gedo Region – Situation Analysis Context Gedo Region, the second largest region in Somalia, lies on the Somalia borders with Ethiopia and Kenya, and shares borders with four Somali regions of Bay, Bakool and Middle Jubba and Lower Jubba. It has an estimated total population of 328,3781, with a 75/25 rural/urban divide.The region is home to 76,510 IDPs2. UNHCR estimates that 16,380 IDPs arrived in Luuq, 30,000 in Doloow, and approximately 18,000 in Belet Xaawo. Gedo has six administrative districts: Garbaharey, Baardheere (the capital), Ceel Waaq in the south and Belet Xaawo, Doloow, and Luuq in the north. Two major rivers run through the region, the Dawa and the Juba. The Dawa River runs along the border of Ethiopia into Somalia’s Gedo region. The Jubba River starts from Doloow, just north of Luuq district, and flows to Buur Dhuubo and Baardheere. The economy mostly depends on rearing livestock and farming, but also has strong inter-regional and international cross-border trade with Kenya and Ethiopia, to some extent. In the northern zone the pastoralists rear sheep, goats, camels and cows. The agro-pastoral zone extends from east to west below Guban. The riverine zone extends from east to west below West Golis and is mainly a farming area where crops such as sorghum are produced. The security and access situation in north Gedo, in particular to Luuq, has relatively improved for the United Nations and International NGOs. The area is controlled by the Somali National Army forces backed by Ethiopian forces. South Gedo is more insecure due to continued clashes and greater access for Al-Shabaab (AS) in the rural areas of Garbaharey, Buur Dhuubo and Baardheere.
