REGIONAL REPORT: MUDUG REGION INTRODUCTION The Mudug region is the most centrally located region in Somalia. It is equidistant from Galkaiyo by 750 kms. to Mogadishu, Hargeisa, Bossaso and Harar in Ethiopia. Its land area - one of the largest in Somalh - is 60,000 sq. kms. and it is bordered to the east by the Indian Ocean, to the west by Ethiopia, Nugal region on the north and to the south by Galgadud region. Its five districts; Galkaiyo (regional capital), Jerriban, Hobyo, Galdogob and Harardere and 52 villages have a combined population estimated at 109,220. EDUCATION There are eight primary schools in Galkaiyo, five in Goldogob, six in Jerriban, five in Hobyo and four in Harardere. There is a total student population of 2120 with 80 teachers, 41 of whom are qualified. The one regional secondary school in Galkaiyo is completely destroyed and has to be rebuilt if there is to be a secondary school. There are hundreds of koranic schools throughout the region with both a koranic and secular curriculum. Primary school structures are still intact but many would need rehabilitation. There is a general lack of educational materials and school equipment. UNICEF has provided some school kits in the form of exercise books, chalk and blackboards. UNESCO has organized workshops for primary school teachers in Galkaiyo, Jerriban and Goldogob. WFP operates a food-for-work project for primary school teachers. In early October, an Educational Committe was formed to channel project proposals for food-for-work for teachers and school rehabilitation projects. SOURCE: PLANNING AND INFORMATION UNIT, UNOSOM 2.

Somalia Drought Response
Somalia Since 1991, International Medical Corps has worked in Somalia to implement programs that build local capacity while serving the immediate health, nutrition and sanitation and hygiene needs of the most vulnerable. Drought conditions continue to worsen in Somalia and famine looms as the country’s long-running armed conflict drags on, taking a heavy toll on civilians in much of the south-central region. The effects of drought, flooding, and displacement in addition to the fighting have left approximately half of the population dependent on outside support for their survival and livelihoods support. The drought continues to drive people from their homes in search of assistance, while disease outbreaks including cholera and measles are spreading. Restrictions on humanitarian access exacerbate the already precarious situation. EMERGENCY RESPONSE TO DROUGHT International Medical Corps is scaling up health and nutrition assistance in Mudug, Galgaduud, and Banadir, three regions at emergency levels of acute food insecurity (IPC 4). In addition, International Medical Corps is providing health, nutrition screening, and water and sanitation (WASH) assistance within the Middle Shabelle Region, currently at crisis levels of food insecurity (IPC 3). This includes mobile medical clinics in Galgaduud, Banadir, and Middle Shabelle that reach remote communities with life- saving care. We are also running a 54-bed stabilization center that provides 24-hour care for severely malnourished children with medical complications at Galkayo South Hospital. In Mogadishu, International Medical Corps is providing primary health and nutrition services in two displacement settlements. This includes screening for and treatment of acute malnutrition as well as community education healthy infant and young child feeding practices and food rations.

The Somali Context III. Issues of Implementation and Administration A) Staffing B) Project Design C) Administration D) Geneva-Nairobi coordination IV. Impact Analysis A) Local Impact — Civil Society B) Local Impact — Puntland Administration C) Impact on External Actors V. Assessment of Research Products VI. General Observations about the WSP-Puntland Experience VII. Conclusion and Recommendations Persons Interviewed References 2 Terms of Reference Given WSP’s unique, experimental nature, evaluation and assessment are an important part of the project. Hence WSP developed at the outset a detailed set of evaluation guidelines for its country projects. Project evaluation was visualized as a two-step process. Evaluation I was to focus on project impact and effectiveness, to be carried out by WSP working group members in country, with support from the WSP national team. Evaluation II was intended as an assessment of “methodology, organizational set-up, administration, and operational functioning” to be carried out by an external consultant. Detailed guidelines and “lead questions” for both these evaluations are published in War-Torn Societies Project in Practice (1999), Annex 4, and served as the terms of reference for this evaluation. This assessment was originally envisioned as “Evaluation II.” However, the WSP team in Geneva and Nairobi requested that the terms of reference be expanded to include exploration of project impact and effectiveness in Puntland, and to allow for broader reflection on the WSP approach in the Somali context.

Part H Background to the Somali War 1 Introduction
PART H BACKGROUND TO THE SOMALI WAR 1 INTRODUCTION TO SOMALIA 1.1 The Somali People Somalia1 covers almost 640,000 square kilometres in the north-eastern tip of the Horn of Africa. In the main this is a semi-desert region, with a vegetation cover and water resources that dictate a pastoral nomadic existence for the majority of the population. The exception is the area between the two southern rivers, the Shabelle and Juba, and in valleys of the northern escarpments, where higher rainfall and richer soils provide land suitable for agriculture. r The Somali-speaking people form one of the largest ethnic groups in Africa, living dispersed throughout the Horn, from the Awash Valley, through the Ethiopian Ogaden, and into northern Kenya as far as the Tana river. A Cushitic-speaking family or 'nation' of people, Somalis belong to the Hamitic group of peoples, which includes the Afar, Oromo, Saho and Beja peoples of the Horn. The Somali are distinguished by a shared common ancestry, a single language, an Islamic (sunni) heritage and a way of life that is overwhelmingly pastoral. The Somali are divided into six 'clan families' — Dir, Issaq, Darod, Hawiye, Digil, and Rahanweyne — which are further divided, according to agnatic descent, into subsidiary clans or lineage groups (see diagram 1) (Lewis, 1961). The Somali kinship system and the flexible and shifting alliances of clan kinship groups are fundament- ally entrenched in the social, political, and economic culture of the Somali people. Until the colonial period the Somali 'nation' did not form a single political unit; any concept of political identity was based on clan affiliation.
