Further delays in seasonal Gu Nutrition Situation in Hiran 7 rains will lead to deterioration in malnutrition situation in these Nutrition Causal Analysis in North Gedo and in Qardho and regions. Increasing trends of acute malnutrition were also Galkayo IDPs 7 reported by health facilities in Juba pastorals and Agropastorals Baseline Survey for Strengthening Nutrition Security in South in Lower Shabelle. Central Somalia 10 Post Gu Nutrition Assessment Schedule (May– July 2014) 13 Southern regions The integrated nutrition situation analysis conducted by FSNAU and partners in January 2014 classified the nutrition situation in Bakool Pastoral, Bay agro-pastoral, Beletweyne District, Kismayo IDPs, Dolow IDPs and Dhobley IDPs as Critical. On the other hand, nutrition situation in North Gedo riverine, North Gedo Pastoral, North Gedo Agro-pastoral, Baidoa IDPs, and Middle Shabelle and Mataban district was classified as Serious. In Lower Shabelle, nutrition assessments could not be done due to prevailing insecurity and the available health facility data was insufficient to classify the nutrition situation in these areas1. Data from health facilities in January- March 2014 suggest increasing trends in prevalence of acute malnutrition in pastoral livelihoods of Juba and Agro pastorals in Lower Shabelle and limited humanitarian access suggest situation is likely to deteriorate. Prevalence of acute malnutrition is critical but stable in Bay, Bakool, Juba Agro pastoral and Juba Riverine, Gedo riverine and Gedo Agro pastoral and in Banadir region. Serious nutrition situation but stable trends were recorded by health facilities among Gedo pastoral livelihood. This suggests that southern region remains highly vulnerable. However, the nutrition situation is expected to improve due to increased access to milk in all livelihoods following early onset of Gu rainfall which boosts livestock production in the region. Health Facility data from Middle and Lower Shabelle indicate a high (>20%) and fluctuating trends of acutely malnourished children across livelihoods in the two regions. In addition, field reports indicate a seasonal increase in cases of acute watery diarrhoea in these regions which is likely to aggravate nutrition situation. It was observed that a number of MCH (Maternal and Child Health) centres in south region have closed due to insecurity/access. This will impact the regional capacity to respond to malnutrition, prevent disease outbreaks by providing essential vaccinations and increase prevalence of severe acute malnutrition. Northern and Central regions The integrated nutrition situation analysis conducted by FSNAU and partners in January 2014 indicated a Serious nutrition situation across livelihoods in Northwest, Northeast and Central Somalia with exception of Sool plateau and Addun in Northeast/ Central regions livelihoods which were in an Alert level. A review of the health facility data and field reports indicate a generally stable nutrition situation across livelihoods in Northwest, Northeast and Central regions i.e. same levels as in Deyr 2013/14. Data from health facilities show critical levels of acute malnutrition and increasing trends in NW Agro pastoral (>15%). However, the increasing trend noted in the Agro-pastoral livelihood is linked to availability of supplies in feeding programme which attract more people to the facilities. Hawd central recorded > 50 percent acute malnutrition because of closure of OTP site (Abudwaaq) by Save the Children and long distances families have to cover to reach existing OTP to access lifesaving care. Health facilities in Addun central also reported high levels of acute malnutrition (critical situation), but trends are stable. Health facilities in West Golis/Guban, East Golis, and Sool Plateau, Nugal Valley in Northwest and Sool plateau and Nugal valley in North East reported alert levels of acute malnutrition (< 10%) and stable trends . Field reports indicate increased milk access in all livelihoods of northwest, and the situation may improve further following the onset of Gu’ rainfall. However, there are sporadic cases of diarrheal diseases, ARI and measles reported in Northwest regions especially in Sool regions which are likely to aggravate the nutrition situation in the affected livelihoods. 1 Nutrition Technical Series Report, March 2014 Technical Partners FSNAU Funding Agencies FSNAU FSNAU Bi-Monthly Nutrition Update, March-April 2014 Serious levels of prevalence of acute malnutrition and increasing trends were recorded by health facilities in Hawd livelihood in both northwest and northeast region. According to the MOH surveillance reports, Measles outbreak has been reported in most of districts since January 2014 and the trend was increasing every week where 12 samples collected from Burtinle district 4 of them were confirmed positive for measles. The increased case of measles was also reported from livelihood zones in central regions and this could have a negative impact to the nutritional status of the children. For children under five, the risk of developing severe or fatal measles is increased by overcrowded living situations ( IDPs) and malnourishment .The cholera transmission season will begin with the onset of the Gu rains at the end of March and this will lead to increase in prevalence of severe acute malnutrition during the post Gu period.

  • Article Monitoring Mogadishu
    Article Monitoring Mogadishu Alice Hills University of Leeds, UK [email protected] Abstract Technology-based surveillance practices have changed the modes of policing found in the global North but have yet to influence police–citizen engagement in Southern cities such as Mogadishu, the capital of Somalia. Based on the role played by monitoring in Mogadishu’s formal security plan and in an informal neighbourhood watch scheme in Waberi district, this article uses a policy- oriented approach to generate insight into surveillance and policing in a fragile and seemingly dysfunctional environment. It shows that while watching is an integral aspect of everyday life, sophisticated technologies capable of digitally capturing real-time events play no part in crime reporting or in the monitoring of terrorist threats, and information is delivered by using basic and inclusive methods such as word of mouth, rather than by mobile telephones or social media. Indeed, the availability of technologies such as CCTV has actually resulted in the reproduction and reinforcement of older models of policing; even when the need to monitor security threats encourages residents to engage with the task of policing, their responses reflect local preferences and legacy issues dating from the 1970s and 2000s. In other words, policing practice has not been reconfigured. In Mogadishu, as in most of the world, the policing task is shaped as much by residents’ expectations as by the technologies available. Introduction It is often assumed that the use of technologies capable of monitoring or capturing real-time events enables people to become more engaged in surveillance and policing.

  • Punishment on Stage
    Punishment on Stage -Application of Islamic Criminal Law by Harakat al-Shabaab al-Mujahideen- Michael Skjelderup Master’s Degree Thesis in History of Religion (60sp) Department of Culture Studies and Oriental Languages The Faculty of Humanities University of Oslo Autumn 2011 © Michael Skjelderup Autumn 2011 Punishment on Stage: Application of Islamic Criminal Law by Harakat al-Shabaab al- Mujahideen Michael Skjelderup http://www.duo.uio.no/ Trykk: Reprosentralen, Universitetet i Oslo II Executive summary Harakat al-Shabaab al-Mujahideen, usually referred to as al-Shabaab (“the youth”), is mostly known as a Somali terrorist group. But since the end of 2008 it has functioned as a state power in large parts of Southern and Central Somalia. In this study I sketch out the structure and function of the legal system of the group. Over the last three years they have developed an administrative structure and a legal system which is unprecedented in the Somali conflict, which has lasted for more than 20 years. In order to establish law and order in their territories al-Shabaab has applied their own version of sharī’a and issued strict religiously inspired decrees. The present study is based on information acquired through interviews with Somali refugees in Nairobi who have direct experiences with al-Shabaab’s judicial practice. It reveals that al-Shabaab’s application of criminal law follows the inherent logic of classical Islamic legal doctrines on several points. However, the al-Shabaab courts tend to overlook many of the strict requirements regarding evidence and procedure which was outlined by the medieval Muslim scholars in order to humanize Islamic law.
