In Puntland three new districts got female council members: Benderbayla now has two women out of 23 councilors; Eyl has three women out of 23 councilors and in Badhan there are five women out of 23 council members and also the vice mayor here is a female. To follow up on the selection of women there was a first network meeting for female councilors to share experiences and discuss how they can actively participate in the work of their councils. In Somaliland on the other hand the process started to set up a gender policy and strategy for 2011 with the Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs. Included in the planned work for 2011 is training of potential women leaders as well as current council members. Two other milestones took place in the 1st quarter with regard to JPLG. One was the district procurement audit in both Puntland and Somaliland and the other was discussions with Ministries of Health and Education to start sector studies. The process of identifying and selecting an institution (s) to implement sector studies in health, education and water was initiated to start in Puntland in early September and are planned to come to Somaliland later in the year. The Education sector studies are linked to the Integrated Capacity Development for Somalia Education Administration (ICDSEA) under which technical experts provide support to the planning and policy unit of the MoE. The Health sector studies on the other hand are based on a new guideline from MoH called EPHS (Essential Package of Health Services) which hopes to harmonize health service provisions at every health tier level using four components: Primary health unit (PHU), Health center (HC), Referral health center (RHC) and Hospital (H).Other sector studies were initiated for the road and environment sectors. A new and comprehensive Administration Training programme for all districts and Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs started in Somaliland and will follow in Puntland, while capacity assessments for the district administration staff were carried out in three districts in both Somaliland and Puntland to establish capacity development plans at district level. Also trainings were carried out on the Local Development Fund (LDF) mechanisms, including on Minimum Conditions (MC) both in Puntland and Somaliland to increase the participant’s knowledge of the LDF, and ensure successful implementation of the programme. It is considered essential for LDF implementation that councils are not dissolved for long periods of time (such as in Bossaso and possibly Galkayo). A Letter of Agreement was prepared with Ministry of Finance to support the Local Transfer Mechanisms of the LDF and financial management and reporting procedures were discussed with Accountant and Auditor Generals of both Somaliland and Puntland. 3 UN Joint Programme on Local Governance and Decentralised Service Delivery The implementation of 2010 projects continued in the quarter. Under the Mogadishu Participatory District Rehabilitation the final four of the 17 projects, identified as part of the district dialogue process, were completed. These were three markets in Wadajir, Yaqshid and Heliwaa, as well as the District Office in Waberi. Kindly refer to the outcome matrix below (Annex 1 Outcome 1.5.). In Puntland and Somaliland District Engineers were provided with coaching in their monitoring and supervision of projects (see Annex 4 for a progress update). In Puntland, 20 new projects were selected for 2011, while in Somaliland 23 projects were selected, as part of the annual work planning process of the districts. Public meetings with communities were carried out in all target districts in Somaliland and Puntland. It was the first time that such meetings ever took place in Somaliland. Participant numbers were high with an estimated 1,700 people attending (Hargeisa 500, Borama 250, Berbera 150, Sheikh 250, Burao 300 and Odweine, 250); of these at least 40% were female, 10% children and the rest men (50%). The meetings presented Government budgets, expenditures, plans and had Q&A’s. Key highlights from the Somaliland meetings can be found in Chapter 1.5. In Puntland meetings took place as part of existing council meetings and key achievements, challenges and lessons learnt were presented together with the district AWP’s. This led to open discussions which fed into agreements between Government and communities on district development priorities. Roadmaps on Municipal Finance Policy Development were carried out in both Somaliland and Puntland and in Somaliland there was common agreement on the need for standardized procedures for accounting and billing databases. A draft ministerial decree for institutionalizing the databases has been presented to the Director General and the Director of Districts’ Development of the Ministry of Interior, the Auditor General and the Mayor of Hargeisa. In Puntland formats for budgeting and accounting were developed and a draft ministerial decree was also presented and discussed with the Minister of Interior, Accountant General, Auditor General and the Mayor of Garowe. 4 UN Joint Programme on Local Governance and Decentralised Service Delivery ABBREVIATIONS AND ACRONYMS AA Administrative Agent AWP Annual Work Plan CDRD Community Driven Recovery and Development Project CMG Community Monitoring Groups DBF District Basket Fund DBPB District Based Peace Building Process DPPB District Participatory Planning and Budgeting Process DC District Council EPHS Essential Package of Health Services ICDSEA Integrated Capacity Development for Somalia Education Administration ILO International Labour Organisation JPLG Joint Programme on Local Governance and Decentralized Service Delivery LDF Local Development Fund LED Local Economic Development LG Local Governments LLM Local Leadership and Management LOA Letter of Agreement MC Minimum Conditions (LDF) M&E Monitoring and Evaluation MOI Ministry of Interior MOF Ministry of Finance MOFASD Ministry of Family Affairs and Social Development (Somaliland) MOSS Minimum Operational Security Standards MOU Memorandum of Understanding MODWFA Ministry of Women Development and Family Affairs (Puntland) NGO Non-Governmental Organisation OES Outcome Evaluation System PCU Programme Coordination Unit of the JPLG PIM Participatory Impact Monitoring PL Puntland PMG JPLG Programme Management Group RC Resident Coordinator RDP Somali Reconstruction and Development Programme RSL Recovery and Sustainable Livelihoods Programme of UNDP SL Somaliland SC South central Somalia SMA Somaliland Municipal Association TFG Transitional Federal Government TOT Training of Trainers TWG JPLG Technical Working Group UN United Nations UNCDF United Nations Capital Development Fund UNDG United Nations Development Group UNDP United Nations Development Programme UNDP-SIDP UNDP Somali Institution Development Project UN-HABITAT United Nations Human Settlements Programme UNICEF United Nations Children’s Fund UNOPS United Nations Office for Project Services UNTP United Nations Transition Plan for Somalia USD United States Dollar VC Village Committee 5 UN Joint Programme on Local Governance and Decentralised Service Delivery MAP OF JPLG TARGETS 6 UN Joint Programme on Local Governance and Decentralised Service Delivery TABLE OF CONTENTS Executive Summary __________________________________________________________ 3 Abbreviations and Acronyms __________________________________________________ 4 Map of JPLG Targets _________________________________________________________ 6 1 Progress _______________________________________________________________ 8

  • SOMALIA RAINFALL and FLOODS UPDATE 02 May 2021
    SOMALIA RAINFALL and FLOODS UPDATE 02 May 2021 Due to climate change and its associated impacts Somalia is now recording more wet and dry weather events, often with disastrous consequences for the people facing such extremes. It has become even more difficult to predict such sequential events. Currently, more than 80 percent of the country is facing drought conditions in the mid of the primary Gu rainy season. Yet, flash floods have been reported in the last two days following heavy and sporadic rains in Somaliland. In addition, limited climate change adaptive capacities has led to irresponsible socio- economic practices like cutting of river banks to extract irrigation waters, further exposing the communities to climate hazards. For instance, riverine flooding due to open river banks near Baarey and Moyko villages has been reported in Jowhar within Middle Shabelle region. With current climate models predicting extreme temperatures and rainfall in the future within the region, the country is likely to continue experiencing frequent flood and drought events with likely consequences of affecting untold numbers of people, taxing economies, disrupting food production, creating unrest and prompting migrations. FLOODS AND RAINS UPDATE The Gu rains continued to spread across most parts of the country with Somaliland and Puntland experiencing moderate to heavy rains over the last week. Other areas in central and southern regions recorded light to moderate rains. The Ethiopian highlands received moderate rains within the last week. Since 25 May 2021, most parts of Somaliland have been receiving moderate to heavy rains. Localized flash floods caused by the heavy rainfall were reported on 01 May 2021 in parts of Hargeisa district.

  • Issued January 14 2004 HIGHLIGHTS
    Issued January 14 2004 HIGHLIGHTS · Sool Plateau Update : Rains of low intensity and limited spatial coverage fell in the first week of December but did little to alleviate the current humanitarian crisis in Sool Plateau. Nutritional status surveys reflect the deteriorating food security situation of residents. An acute malnutrition rate of 18.9% (W/H<2 z-score or oedema) was found during the first round of Sool Plateau sentinel site surveil- lance exercise in November/December 2003. A UNICEF led mission in mid-December 2003 also recorded an equally high malnutri- tion rate in Sool Plateau of Sanaag (4,841 children screened). The rate was significantly higher in Sool Plateau of Sool Region (2,049 children were screened). Civil insecurity in the area is now threatening to disrupt humanitarian relief operations in the region. · Drought in Hawd of Todgheer : An inter-agency rapid assessment led by the FSAU found that the poor and lower levles of the middle wealth pastoral group are facing a high risk of food shortage, largely as a result of poor Gu 2003 and failed Deyr 2003 rains. Affected households will need to be closely monitored during the harsh, dry Jilaal season. For more information on the drought stricken region, see page 2. · Galgadud Region : UN-OCHA Somalia and FSAU carried out a low level mission to Galagdud (13-20 December 2003) to districts where people had been displaced following civil insecurity in the region. This diplacement, combined with a two month delay in the onset of the Deyr rains has undermined agricultural and livestock activities, increasing the risk of food insecurity.
