Protection Cluster Update Funded by: The People of Japan Weeklyhttp://www.shabelle.net/article.php?id=4297 Report 15 th July 2011 European Commission IASC Somalia •Objective Protection Monitoring Ne twork (PMN) Humanitarian Aid This update provides information on the protection environment in Somalia, including apparent violations of Human Rights and International Humanitarian Law as reported in during the last week through the IASC Somalia Protection Cluster monitoring systems. Incidents mentioned in this report are not exhaustive. They are intended to highlight credible reports in order to inform programming and advocacy by the humanitarian community and national authorities. General Overview Fighting between forces allied to the Transitional Federal Government of Somalia (TFG) and Al Shabaab has largely subsided in recent weeks due to the extended humanitarian crisis caused by the severe drought throughout Somalia. Although the drought has been the protection concern and the main cause of displacement through South Central Somalia, insecurity remains high in many areas. People throughout Somalia are involved in a rapidly declining human rights situation as the country is facing a level of famine and drought not seen in decades. According to various humanitarian agencies the famine and drought is currently threatening an estimated 2.85 million people in the country, or one- third of the country’s population.1 UN High Commissioner for Refugees, Antonio Guterres recently stated that Somalia has come to represent “the worst humanitarian disaster in the world.” 2 The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) has stated that malnutrition rates for children under five in central and southern Somalia are the highest in the world, as one in ten children are at risk of starving to death in the drought-hit regions. -

General Overview Heavy fighting in southern regions between Al Shabaab and Transitional Federal Government (TFG) has led to heightened protection concerns throughout the reporting period. In Ceel Waaq, 43 people were killed and almost 80 wounded and an unknown number displaced following fighting between the TFG and Al Shabaab forces.1 The civilian population continues to face insecurity due to the ongoing conflict compounded by limited access to basic services and humanitarian support. In other regions, the famine has continued to take its toll on the Somali population.

DROUGHT, DISPLACEMENT and LIVELIHOODS in SOMALIA/SOMALILAND Time for Gender-Sensitive and Protection-Focused Approaches
DROUGHT, DISPLACEMENT AND LIVELIHOODS IN SOMALIA/SOMALILAND Time for gender-sensitive and protection-focused approaches JOINT AGENCY BRIEFING NOTE – JUNE 2018 ‘The drought destroyed our house, and by that I mean we lost all we had.’ Farhia,1 Daynile district, Banadir region Thousands of Somali families were displaced to urban centres by the 2017 drought. Research by a consortium of non-government organizations indicates that they do not intend to return home anytime soon. It also shows how precarious and limited are the livelihood opportunities for displaced people in Somalia; how far people’s options are affected by gender; and how changing gender dynamics present further protection threats to both men and women. Comparing the findings for Somaliland with those for the rest of the country, the research underscores the importance of local dynamics for people’s opportunities and protection. Gaps were highlighted in the provision of basic services for women particularly. Local, state and federal authorities, donors, and humanitarian and development actors need to improve displaced people’s immediate access to safe, gender-sensitive basic services – and to develop plans for more durable solutions to displacement. As floods in April to June 2018 have forced more people to leave their homes, an immediate step up in the response is essential. © Oxfam International June 2018 This paper was written by Emma Fanning.

Protection Cluster Update Weekly Report
Protection Cluster Update Funded by: The People of Japan Weeklyhttp://www.shabelle.net/article.php?id=4297 Report 27 th January 2012 European Commission IASC Somalia •Objective Prote ction Monitoring Network (PMN) Humanitarian Aid This update provides information on the protection environment in Somalia, including apparent violations of Human Rights and International Humanitarian Law as reported during the last two weeks through the IASC Somalia Protection Cluster monitoring systems. Incidents mentioned in this report are not exhaustive. They are intended to highlight credible reports to inform and prompt programming and advocacy initiatives by the humanitarian community and national authorities. GENERAL OVERVIEW Clan tensions resumed between Sool, Sanag Clan militias (SSC), including Dhulbahante clan militias and Somaliland forces in Buuhoodle district of Togdheer region after the Somaliland military launched an attack against the SSC militias and captured Buuhoodle town. The fighting resulted in a number of civilian casualties and over 2,000 displacements mainly within Buuhoodle district. Reports suggest that the majority of IDPs returned to their villages when the fighting ended. Following the tensions in Buuhoodle, the Somaliland forces were deployed in parts of Sool region to prevent Dhulbahante clan members from declaring a separate clan administration in the area, which could be perceived by Somaliland authorities as prejudicial to Somaliland’s sovereignty. Following the deployment, members of the Dhulbahante clan demonstrated in favour of creating a separate administration in Laas Canood town, but were faced with a police crackdown. Reports indicate that four civilians were wounded and over 60 people were arrested and detained by the Somaliland security forces. -
