    Galmudug State Idp Camps Rapid Wash Assessment Report

    GALMUDUG STATE IDP CAMPS RAPID WASH ASSESSMENT REPORT Host community in Qaradhi village, Adado District fetching water from stagnant pool of water in the water source. 5TH – 9TH MAY 2018 Galmudug State Rapid WASH Assessment Report (@2018, CPD) 1 INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND Through the WASH Cluster, CPD as the lead agency organized rapid WASH assessment with SCI, IRC, SSWC and the regional Local Authority (Galmudug Disaster Management Agency) between 5th to 9th May 2018 in Galmudug State. Following the recent floods in Somalia, a number of IDPs were affected and displaced which were at risk to poor hygiene and sanitation if not intervened timely. The assessment was planned after extensive discussion with the WASH cluster partners through the regional WASH cluster meeting held on 29th April 2018 at CPD hall in Adado District. This assessment would not have been possible without the generous support of the WASH partner organizations mentioned above who supported questionnaire data collection in Abudwak, Adado and Dhusamareb Districts of Galmudug State, Somalia. The GU seasonal rain started with heavy rains flooding most in middle and lower shabelle but it has not spared the IDPs in Galmudug State affecting 3,315 Households in Abudwak, Adado and Dhusamareb District IDP Camps as well. These people affected by the floods are mostly the IDPs and some Host communities’ homestead leaving stagnant around their homes and leaving massive flood around their water sources leaving stagnant water in all the area and destroying latrines and the IDPs temporary shelters. The Assessment was carried out in 24 different IDP camps in Abudwak, Adado and Dhusamareb District IDP Camps, Galmudug State.

    DROUGHT June - December 2019 RESPONSE PLAN ISSUED 20 May 2019 SOMALIA Photo: WFP Somalia DROUGHT RESPONSE PLAN JUNE - DECEMBER 2019 PEOPLE TARGETED REQUESTED (US$) OPERATIONAL PARTNERS 4.5M 710.5M 235 Situation Overview Two years after the prolonged 2016/2017 drought destroyed livelihoods and displaced almost one million Somalis - but also triggered a massive and successful scale up in humanitarian response to avert famine - severe climatic conditions, combined with other persistent drivers of humani- tarian crisis, armed conflict, protracted and continued displacement and a spike in evictions of internally displaced persons are again pushing Somalia towards a major humanitarian emergency. The combined impact of the initial, and potentially complete, failure of the 2019 Gu’ rains (April-June), which followed a poor 2018 Deyr season (October-December), and abnormally hot, dry conditions during the 2019 Jilaal season (January-March) has caused widespread crop failure and accelerated decline in livestock productivity, rapidly pushing communities in the worst-affected areas into food insecurity crisis phase, or worse. The signs of crisis, such as irregular pastoral migration coupled with deteriorating livestock body conditions and reduction in milk production, increased displacement due to drought and increases in drought-related disease, are already widely observed. Out of 5.4 million expected to be acutely food insecure by July, 2.2 million will be in severe acute food insecurity conditions (IPC 3 and above), a 40 per cent increase from

SUMMARY 1.1 Key findings/considerations. 1.2 Herale district- Social structures - Herale ‘’district’’1 was formerly part of Balanbale district of Galmudug state. It is a relatively small settlement that neighbors Balanbale district in Galmudug state. The area has an estimated population of 29,000 residents;it is divided into six sub-locations. It is located about 600km north of the Somali capital Mogadishu and straddles between AbudwakandBalanbale districts. The Dir clan is the dominant constituency with the presence of the minority clans in Herale district. - The Dir clan is comprised of many sub- clans majority of who settle in Somaliland while substantial constituencies live in south central Somalia. Suure sub clan is the branch of Dir family that occupies Herale district. The community has a strong tradition that bonded the community over the years. However, the tradition seem to have been weakened over time by the political contests between politicians that supported Galmudug state formation in 2015 and ASWJ allied faction that opposed its formation- because of the federal governments interference.The disagreement resulted a bloody conflict that saw the ousting of ASWJ backed faction that dominated the politics of the district for decades from Herale town to Hurshe settlement 15 KM north of the city.
