  • Report on Rapid Inter-Agency Assessment in Bari, Karkaar and Parts of Sanaag Regions/Puntland Somalia. 13-18 February 2016
    Report on rapid inter-agency assessment in Bari, Karkaar and parts of Sanaag regions/Puntland Somalia. 13-18 February 2016. Water trucked from Buraan borehole, 75 km away from this location to save lives of humans and livestock in most remote areas in Baragaha Qol Sanaag region. Introduction Somalia has been experiencing recurring droughts in recent history. The 2011 drought was the last that hit the country hard and caused the death of more than 250,000 people around the country. Somalia experiences these cyclic droughts and the major driver that leads to this repeated calamity includes anthropogenic activities that pressure the environment and resources. Since the onset of El Nino in the last quarter of 2015, the impact has been severe in the northern parts of Somalia. Most parts of Puntland particularly Bari, Nugaal, Sanaag and Sool regions received below average rains since 2015 GU. In November 2015, cyclones Chapala and Megh caused significant damage which affected more than 70,000 people according to FAO-SWALIM. Agro-pastoral and pastoral communities were the worst affected. Most of rural and pastoral settlements continue to face severe water shortage especially those settlements that depend on Berkads. According to HADMA and local authorities, the price of water in most of the settlements has risen from USD 12 to USD 15 per barrel and this is likely to increase if the rains continue to delay. Malnutrition rates in hard hit areas have doubled to 18% GAM and caseloads of malnourished children admitted into nutrition centres in Puntland have steadily increased since July 2015.

Humanitarian assistance itself is examined in detail and placed in a broader context of ideas of vulnerability, resilience and adaptive capacity in response to disasters.
