WFP Somalia

For Somalia, the climate crisis is an ongoing reality. Recurring droughts and floods continue to destroy livelihoods, displace families and deepen food insecurity. Our Deputy Country Director’s

message for #COP31. 👇

With 5.4 million people in Somalia projected to face crisis levels of hunger or worse, families are struggling to cope with mounting food insecurity. Rising El Niño risks could push vulnerable communities deeper into hunger and displacement. #Somalia

Flood-affected communities in Somalia face growing climate risks, with forecasts pointing to another potential El Nino season. Humanitarian assistance saves lives, but resilience investments help communities adapt, prepare for future shocks and build a more secure future. #COP31

The Republic of Korea @mofa_kr is supporting WFP’s response to Somalia’s malnutrition crisis through the provision of specialised nutritious foods for vulnerable children, helping them access critical nutrition support.

Somalia is on the frontline of the climate crisis. At #COP31, we need urgent action to expand climate finance and invest in adaptation, resilience and early warning systems that protect lives, livelihoods and food security. #Somalia
