Somalia faces catastrophic hunger, with the country devastated by the extreme and worsening drought in the Horn of Africa.
A total of 7.1 million people face acute food insecurity amid the driest conditions in 40 years, following three consecutive failed rainy seasons. Drought is compounding the impacts of other recurrent climate shocks, persistent insecurity and instability. A total of 1.5 million children under 5 face acute malnutrition; 386,000 of these face severe malnutrition and may be at risk of dying without immediate treatment. More than a million people have been displaced by the drought, 750,000 of whom this year only.
Famine could break out in a matter of weeks in some regions if livestock and crops continue to die and soaring prices continue to destroy purchasing power. The last famine declared in Somalia, in 2011, killed a quarter of a million people.
In the face of this crisis, WFP is working to scale up its emergency food and nutrition response to reach a total of 4.5 million people a month – but needs US$327 million until January 2023 to continue saving lives. The gap between hunger and the humanitarian response is widening. Immediate action is needed to avert a humanitarian catastrophe.
