This report provides an overview of donor contributions and funding allocations made during 2012 and presents a comprehensive set of achievements through the projects implemented by CHF Somalia partners. During the course of the year, ten different donors contributed US$71 million to the CHF. These donors were: Australia, Denmark, Finland, Ireland, Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and a new contributor to the CHF Somalia, Germany. These contributions combined with a carryover of $4.1 million from 2011 as well as $17.7 million received in December 2011, brought the total available funds in 2012 to a record $92.8 million. This represented 14 per cent of the total $640 million received for the 2012 Somalia CAP. Of the $92.8 million, the CHF allocated and disbursed $90 million to various projects implemented by its partners. Forty-one per cent ($37 million) went towards supporting 76 international NGO projects, 25 per cent ($22 million) to 65 local NGOs projects, and 34 per cent ($31 million) to UN projects. Since 2010, the CHF has been supporting urgent humanitarian needs across Somalia. During the 2011 famine, the CHF was able to play a crucial role in facilitating an immediate response to the emergency, at a time when other funding was slow to materialize. As this report shows, the fund continued to provide invaluable flexibility to respond to recurrent and unforeseen crisis over the year. In 2012, the CHF Standard Allocation was able to target and meet urgent life-saving needs of extremely vulnerable people in southern and central Somalia, especially acutely malnourished children and pregnant and breastfeeding women. In addition to the life-saving activities, the Fund also addressed the needs of newly displaced people in Mogadishu with the tri-cluster (Shelter, WASH and Health) integrated strategy approach in providing basic services and semi-permanent shelters to almost 9,000 households. Similarly, the Fund supported projects that promoted coherent sustainable activities for returnees in Bay region with livelihood investment packages and access to basic services. To respond to the potential effects of the projected El Niño and curb the spread of cholera, the CHF supported preparedness activities such as information systems for flood risk management and outbreak prevention in highly populated cholera-prone areas countrywide. The CHF Emergency Reserve funded crucial interventions in response to Acute Watery Diarrhoea outbreaks and bolstered food and livelihood security among flood-affected communities through distribution of essential food and cash-for-work activities to inject cash while aiding in the clean-up of affected farm lands and irrigation canals. Additionally, the reserve addressed malnutrition in coastal communities in Mudug, Puntland. While efforts were made towards improving the efficiency of the allocation processes, the CHF also focused on improving the overall accountability of the Fund. In December 2012, the CHF developed an accountability framework and initiated a capacity assessment of all 112 CHF-funded partners. A monitoring strategy was also finalized in the same month, with implementation planned for the first half of 2013. I am hopeful that these initiatives, among others, will greatly enhance mitigation of the risk of funding projects in Somalia. It will also help to identify underperforming projects in order to take corrective actions and to highlight good practices. I am grateful to the efforts of the donors, the Multi-Partner Trust Fund Office, OCHA as the CHF Secretariat and Managing Agent, the CHF Advisory Board, and to all stakeholders for their continued support to the CHF. I would like to thank all our partners for their continued efforts in making the CHF more strategic and accountable to the needs of the Somali people. Philippe Lazzarini UN Humanitarian Coordinator for Somalia 4 Common Humanitarian Fund – Somalia Annual Report 2012 Executive Summary Unlike the first allocation that was still focused on The Somalia Common Humanitarian Fund (CHF) the aftermath of the 2011 famine, the second 2012 Annual Report provides a comprehensive standard allocation of $44 million, which took place overview of accomplishments, challenges and in September 2012, was able to provide more results of the Fund. strategic funding decisions to respond to humanitarian priorities.

    SOMALIA Rain Watch December 13, 2012 FEWS NET will publish a Rain Watch for Somalia every 10 days (dekad) through the end of the current October to December Deyr rainy season. The purpose of this document is to provide updated information on the progress of the Deyr rains to facilitate contingency and response planning. This Somalia Rain Watch is valid through December 10, 2012 and is produced in collaboration with the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), the Food Security and Nutrition Analysis Unit (FSNAU) Somalia, a number of other agencies, and several Somali non-governmental organizations (NGOs). Deyr rains subside in most parts of southern Somalia Field reports confirm that dry weather continued in Northern regions, Hiran, Bakol, most parts of Middle Shabelle, and the northern parts of both Gedo and Galgadud Regions from December 1 to 10. However, light to moderate rains fell from December 1 to 3 in most parts of Lower Shabelle, Lower and Middle Juba, Bay, southern Gedo, Adale district in Middle Shabelle, and the southern parts of the central regions (Figure 1). A comparison with the long-term mean (LTM) indicates the rains received in early December were near-normal to above normal in Lower Juba while agricultural and agropastoral areas of Bay and Middle and Lower Shabelle received between 20 to 80 percent of normal (Figure 2). In the northern regions, typically Deyr rains starts and ends earlier than in the South and central Somalia. Contrary to the satellite-derived rainfall estimates (Figure 1) which depict light to moderate rains, all rain gauges and field reports confirmed dry conditions across the northern regions from December 1 to 10.

The 2015/2016 and the recurrent 2016/2017 droughts in parts of South West and Northern parts of Somalia comes barely five years after the worst drought hit in Somalia in 2010-2011, internally displacing hundreds of thousands while others moved across the border to Kenya’s Dadaab refugee camps and Ethiopia’s Dolow Ado refugee camps. Many destitute pastoralists have moved to IDP camps around the regional administrative towns in search of humanitarian aid. This recurrence and severity of impact on the population and their livestock is a clear pointer to weakened copying mechanisms. The conflict continues particularly in the Southern Central parts of Somalia, and so is naturally induced environmental turbulences which are not about to end soon. BREC conducted needs analysis visits to the three districts of Buur Hakaba, Berdale & Qansah-dhere with a dual aim of understanding the progress in the implementations of the educations projects in these districts while also seeing the existing gaps and verify access to vulnerable beneficiaries.

  • Lower Shabelle – Situation Analysis October 2012
    Lower Shabelle – Situation Analysis October 2012 Context Lower Shabelle region borders Mogadishu, Middle Shabelle, Middle Juba, Bay and the Indian Ocean. Its estimated population is 850,651 with a rural/urban split of 80/20 per cent1. The region has eight administrative districts and six livelihood zones, mainly the riverine, agro-pastoral and coastal pastoral zones. Lower Shabelle has the largest concentration of IDPs with 496,000 people, including 406,000 in Afgoyee.2 These IDPs were originally displaced from Mogadishu by a multi-dimensional conflict since 2007, living in the Afgooye corridor. During the conflicts in February and May 2012, over 50,000 IDPs were displaced to Mogadishu and other parts of Lower Shabelle from the Afgooye corridor. In June 2012, AMISOM/Somali National Army (SNA) took over Afgoye town, ending more than four years of Al-Shabaab rule. In August 2012, Merka, previously under AS, was also taken by AMISOM and SNA. The remaining districts in the region are still under Al-Shabaab control. Humanitarian Needs Food Security: Lower Shabelle Gu 2012 cereal production is estimated at 27,500 Mt or 54 per cent less than the Post War Average (PWA) Gu (1995-2011). However, as it is 214 per cent above the PWA Deyr average crop production, it compensated for the Gu shortfall thus the overall food security situation in Lower Shabelle is good, there are still about 70,000 people in rural and 30,000 in urban areas are in the crisis phase, according to the integrated food security classification. Good livestock conditions and improved terms for trading goats for cereal is a positive indicator for pastoralists’ food security.
