The papers do not represent the official views of UNHCR. They are also available online under ‘publications’ at <www.unhcr.org>. ISSN 1020-7473 Introduction The classical definition of refugee contained in the 1951 Refugee Convention was ill- suited to the majority of African refugees, who started fleeing in large numbers in the 1960s and 1970s. These refugees were by and large not the victims of state persecution, but of civil wars and the collapse of law and order. Hence the 1969 OAU Refugee Convention expanded the definition of “refugee” to include these reasons for flight. Furthermore, the refugee-dissidents of the 1950s fled mainly as individuals or in small family groups and underwent individual refugee status determination: in-depth interviews to determine their eligibility to refugee status according to the criteria set out in the Convention. The mass refugee movements that took place in Africa made this approach impractical. As a result, refugee status was granted on a prima facie basis, that is with only a very summary interview or often simply with registration - in its most basic form just the name of the head of family and the family size.1 In the Somali context the implementation of this approach has proved problematic.

    NUTRITION SURVEY REPORT BURHAKABA DISTRICT BAY REGION SOMALIA UNICEF SOUTH/CENTRAL ZONE OF SOMALIA BAIDOA OFFICE 2-15 JUNE 2000 Burhakaba District Nutrition Survey, June 2000 1. INTRODUCTION This nutrition survey is the ninth in a series of surveys agreed between UNICEF and FSAU throughout South and Central Somalia. UNICEF planned the surveys, conducted the fieldwork of data collection, trained enumerators, monitored survey activities, carried out data analysis and interpretation and paid the survey cost. UNICEF is grateful to World Vision and Burhakaba Health Authority who facilitated the work in Burhakaba District. 1.2 SURVEY JUSTIFICATION UNICEF supported a supplementary feeding programme in Burhakaba town in the last quarter of 1999 through Burhakaba Health Authority. UNICEF’s supplementary feeding support to Burhakaba was stopped in December 1999 due to misappropriation of supplies. Burhakaba district is situated on the frontline between RRA and SNA factions, is mainly dependent on agriculture and livestock and has suffered continuously from drought, security problems and lack of access to the main markets in Baidoa and Mogadishu during the past five years. Results from the Burhakaba town nutrition survey in September 1999 depicted the highest malnutrition rates in Bay region, with 28% global malnutrition. Although few humanitarian interventions have been possible in Burhakaba district that could improve the level of malnutrition, CARE International managed to continue to deliver food to all the main rural villages in the district, despite insecurity. The decision to conduct another nutrition survey in Burhakaba was made in order not only to compare the results with the previous data, but to obtain baseline data to assist in planning interventions by World Vision, which plans to start working in the district in July 2000.

A verdict was issued on the trail case of the 10 arrested suspects of the killings of four humanitarian workers occurring in 2003 and 2004. The case originally started in March 2005. According to the regional court in Hargeisa, 8 men were found guilty of "terrorism" and were sentenced to death. Following the killing of the 4 expatriate humanitarian workers, the UN in collaboration with the national authorities established a Special Protection Unit (SPU) initially to provide protection for humanitarian workers of UN & international NGOs, subsequently extended to the rest of the community. Since then no further incidents were reported. A deadly mine accident occurred in Burao on 16 November 2005 where a vehicle diverted from the main road towards a roadside short cut. Three out of a total of seven passengers were reported dead, including one UN staff member. Somaliland Mine Action Center (SMAC), supported by UNDP, coordinates mine action activities, since late 1999, an approximate area of around 115 million square meters has been cleared.

    Somaliland: The Strains of Success Crisis Group Africa Briefing N°113 Nairobi/Brussels, 5 October 2015 I. Overview Somaliland’s hybrid system of tri-party democracy and traditional clan-based gov- ernance has enabled the consolidation of state-like authority, social and economic recovery and, above all, relative peace and security but now needs reform. Success has brought greater resources, including a special funding status with donors – especially the UK, Denmark and the European Union (EU) – as well as investment from and diplomatic ties with Turkey and the United Arab Emirates (UAE), though not inter- national recognition. It is increasingly part of the regional system; ties are especially strong with Ethiopia and Djibouti. Given the continued fragility of the Somalia Federal Government (SFG), which still rejects its former northern region’s independence claims, and civil war across the Gulf of Aden in Yemen, Somaliland’s continued stabil- ity is vital. This in turn requires political reforms aimed at greater inclusion, respect for mediating institutions (especially the professional judiciary and parliament) and a regional and wider internationally backed framework for external cooperation and engagement. Successful state building has, nevertheless, raised the stakes of holding – and los- ing – power. While Somaliland has remained largely committed to democratic gov- ernment, elections are increasingly fraught. Fear of a return to bitter internal conflict is pushing more conservative politics: repression of the media and opposition, as well as resistance to reforming the increasingly unsustainable status quo. Recurrent po- litical crises and delayed elections (now set for March 2017) risk postponing much needed internal debate. The political elites have a limited window to decide on steps necessary to rebuild the decaying consensus, reduce social tensions and set an agenda for political and institutional reform.
