2022 UNICEF Somalia Annual Report

Highlights

In 2022, Somalia was grappling with a drought of historic severity alongside high food prices, conflict and disease outbreaks. An estimated 2.2 million internally displaced people (IDPs), (50.1 per cent female, 64 per cent children), required urgent humanitarian assistance. The water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) Cluster reported that 6.4 million people (4.1 million children, 1 million women) suffer water shortages, with 14 out of the 18 regions hardest hit, forcing people to resort to unsafe water sources, triggering spikes of acute watery diarrhoea (AWD) and cholera cases.
