Somali People Ururka Horumarinta Dadka Displacement and Barakaciyaash Development Organization Somaaliyeed ee (SOPDDO) (SOPDDO) Contact E-mail: [email protected]/ [email protected]/ [email protected] INTRODUCTION AND BRIEF HISTORY OF SOPDDO ORGANIZATION After destroyed the central government of Somalia the conflict and consequences of disasters resulting in large scale under development, high levels of mortality and morbidity, large scale destruction of infrastructure including education and health facilities, and lack of access to livelihoods and education. This misfortune leaves thousands of Somali people in need of critical assistance and support every year.

Article Monitoring Mogadishu
Article Monitoring Mogadishu Alice Hills University of Leeds, UK [email protected] Abstract Technology-based surveillance practices have changed the modes of policing found in the global North but have yet to influence police–citizen engagement in Southern cities such as Mogadishu, the capital of Somalia. Based on the role played by monitoring in Mogadishu’s formal security plan and in an informal neighbourhood watch scheme in Waberi district, this article uses a policy- oriented approach to generate insight into surveillance and policing in a fragile and seemingly dysfunctional environment. It shows that while watching is an integral aspect of everyday life, sophisticated technologies capable of digitally capturing real-time events play no part in crime reporting or in the monitoring of terrorist threats, and information is delivered by using basic and inclusive methods such as word of mouth, rather than by mobile telephones or social media. Indeed, the availability of technologies such as CCTV has actually resulted in the reproduction and reinforcement of older models of policing; even when the need to monitor security threats encourages residents to engage with the task of policing, their responses reflect local preferences and legacy issues dating from the 1970s and 2000s. In other words, policing practice has not been reconfigured. In Mogadishu, as in most of the world, the policing task is shaped as much by residents’ expectations as by the technologies available. Introduction It is often assumed that the use of technologies capable of monitoring or capturing real-time events enables people to become more engaged in surveillance and policing. -
Key Overall Developments Famine Is Declared in Parts of Southern
OCHA – Coordination Saves Lives Issue # 29 15‐22 July 2011 Key Overall Developments Famine is declared in parts of southern Somalia The drought situation in the southern regions has now deteriorated to famine in Lower Shabelle and the southern Bakool region. In the last few months, tens of thousands of people have died as a result of causes related to malnutrition; the majority of them are children. On 20 July, the Humanitarian Coordinator for Somalia, Mark Bowden, issued a press statement saying, “If we don’t act now, famine will spread to all other eight regions of southern Somalia within the next two month, due to poor harvests and infectious disease outbreak.” He also added that every day of delay in assistance is literally a matter of life and death for children and their families in the famine affected areas, calling for support for more resources of roughly US$300 million in the next two months. Across the country, 3.7 million people, nearly half the Somali population, are now in crisis. Of these, the majority, 2.8 million are in the eight southern regions. Famine is declared when acute malnutrition rates among children exceed 30 per cent, more than 2 people in 10,000 die per day and when people are not able to access food and other basic necessities. Displacement More people continue to be displaced from Bay, Bakool and the Shabelle regions due the drought and famine situation moving into Mogadishu and neighbouring countries of Kenya and Ethiopia. At least 100,000 have been registered in Kenya while 78,000 have been received in Ethiopia since the beginning of the year. -

Somali Republic Ministry of Education, Culture & Higher
National Education Plan Somali Republic Ministry of Education, Culture & Higher Education National Education Plan. May 2011 1 National Education Plan Preface The collapse of central government of Somalia in 1991 and the civil war that erupted and the continues foreign intervention has caused total destruction of national institution especially those who were providing services to our citizen like health, education, water ad electricity institutions. The destruction has affected the economics of the country both Public and private properties. The country has became a place where there is no law and order and insecurity prevailed and killing, looting and displacement has become day to day with the live of Somalis. The ministry of education, culture and higher education and its department was among the sectors that were spared that resulted total closure of all offices and centers that was dealing with education services and most of education staffs left the country as refugees. It was early 1992, when Somali educationalists regrouped again to revive the education sector of the country to provide the education service that our people used to get from the national education institution that was not functioning at all. Education umbrellas, privately owned school, colleges and higher education institutions have been established to cover the services that the ministry of education was providing to the people before 1991. But again this effort could not provide quality free education throughout the country. The role of the international and local organization towards the education sector of Somalia together with the support of citizens has made the sector with little improved. -
