Hintergrundinformation


Since November 2016 Shabelle zone of Somali region has experienced the worst drought in more than 50 years. As a result of the failure of the weak gu (‘spring’) and dyer (‘fall’) rains, attributable to and exacerbated by the El Nino event, 1,016,166 internally displaced individuals are in need of emergency support in the Somali region. In the Shabelle zone the livelihoods of 85% of the population are linked to livestock production, which are under threat due to the extreme weather situation.

Since the drought emergency started, SOS Ethiopia has been implementing emergency initiatives in two regions (Oromia and Somali regions) where the emergency situation has taken its toll on the already poor and food insecure population. This project plans to build upon the results and achievements of the ongoing initiatives to ensure that no lives are lost and that the affected IDP and host communities are provided for critical survival needs and re-build their resilience. Adadle woreda is a district forgotten by NGOs and the government authorities have been requesting SOS Ethiopia to support with an urgent emergency response.


The project will address the following key problems: 1) a very low access to water for humans and animals as well as sanitation and hygiene practices in Adadle woreda, resulting in widespread waterborne diseases and loss of livestock, 2) increase of Gender based violence (GBV) and protection issues because of displacement and dependency for subsistence earning and 3) dwindling livelihood base, resulting from the high livestock mortality and distressed sale of livestock.
