Somalia has confirmed 2,452 COVID-19 cases as of 11 June with 85 fatalities and 506 recoveries. The rapid spread of the virus is attributed to local transmission and is bound to strain the already-weak healthcare system in the country. Flash and riverine flooding has affected about 1.1 million people, of whom 415,000 have been displaced and 28 killed, in 29 districts, as of 11 June. Belet Weyne district Hiraan region was the worst affected. The flooding was caused by heavy rains in Somalia and the Ethiopian highlands, which raised the water levels on the Shabelle and Juba rivers. There are concerns that the rains will increase the risk of AWD/cholera. New desert locust swarms are threatening food crops and pasture in Somaliland, Puntland and Galmudug States. Somalia is facing a triple threat of COVID-19, floods and locusts.

Humanitarian Dashboard - April 2020 As of 11 June 2020

Camp Coordination and Camp Management (CCCM) 2,000 IDP sites in Somalia

Improve the living conditions and protection of IDPs in sites and settlements, and ensure access to services and assistance for all people in need, with a focus on moving towards durable solutions with the full participation of displaced and host communities. For more information, contact: [email protected]

NeedsCamp Coordination and Camp Management (CCCM) systems are required to ensure equitable access to services and protection for displaced persons in informal settlements. People displaced to informal sites do not have their basic needs met due to the inconsistent provision of services or exclusion from accessing humanitarian support as a result of poor targeting of sites. Displaced people in informal sites are in the greatest need of CCCM services to reduce barriers to assistance, ensure access to quality basic services, enhance the accountability of humanitarian actors to affected populations, and strengthen community participation and empowerment through consistent engagement.

CCCM partners are doing COVID-19 risk communication activities in 852 IDP sites, from the total 2,134 IDP sites in Somalia. This activity has covered 999,206 individuals (38% of the total 2.6 million IDPs). CCCM partners demonstrated good handwashing practices and social distancing measures in IDP communities. CCCM partners administered a diverse range of information sharing methods such as small group discussions, trainings with Camp Management Committee members (CMCs) and site leaders on COVID-19 prevention; using loudspeakers/megaphones or household-level awareness to disseminate key messages. CCCM partners have been able to reach 760 IDP sites in establishing CCCM mechanisms and 702,890 people living within IDP sites with site improvement activities.

NeedsThe Education Cluster is estimating that 1.1 Million children need education assistance due to COVID-19 outbreak in 2020. The education system is fragmented and fragile before COVID-19 pandemic hit. The complexity of multiple crises, including manmade disasters - armed groups, clan conflicts, and natural disasters including persistent droughts and floods as well as the rapid spread of locust.In 2020, the Education Cluster partners will target 307,283 of these children with education in emergencies assistance.Out-of-school children in Somalia face extra protection-related risks, including forced recruitment, abuse, child labor and early marriage; thus, access to protective education can provide children a safe space during this crisis. Displaced children are also disproportionately impacted by the ongoing crisis and over one million school-aged children are displaced and in need of education assistance. Education must be effectively supported as a critical tool to break the cycle of vulnerability.

In April, the Education Sector COVID-19 Response Plan was finalised by the Ministry of Education, Culture and Higher Education with the support of the Education Cluster and partners.The COVID-19 pandemic is spreading throughout the country, which has disrupted learning and forced the closure of schools since 18 March .As of April, Education Cluster partners supported 51,070 (28,467 girls) children with Education in Emergence assistance. 54,691 (25,117 girls) school children are being supported with prevention and control messages through print materials, and 23,861 (10,874 girls) children are being supported with prevention and control messages through radio.

NeedsThe health response seeks to reach those who are most-at-risk due to poor physical and/or mental well-being, as well as those who face limited access to healthcare services. Life-saving and preventive interventions will target several intersecting vulnerable groups: those displaced and marginalized; those suffering from malnutrition and concomitant illnesses; those with insufficient access to water leading to diarrheal disease; those yet to be immunized, exposing the wider population to outbreaks;

COVID-19 Preparedness: To build capacity for COVID-19 preparedness, WHO conducted a two-day training of trainers (ToT) on COVID-19 in Mogadishu. The training was attended by representatives from the Federal Ministry of Health, airport staff and other health workers.AWD/Cholera Outbreak: AWD outbreak reported in in Beledweyne, Bay and Lower Shabelle districts, associated with inadequate clean water and sanitation following the recent floods in the area. Stool samples were collected and transported to the Federal Reference Laboratory in Mogadishu for testing and case confirmation. At least 148 cases were recorded, with a CFR of 2.4% in Beletweyne. Most of the cases came from Kooshin, Hawo-Tako and Buundaweyn. A new Cholera Treatment Center (CTC) was established at the Eljalle neighborhood of Belet Weyne for case management. Cumulative consultations in the first four months of the year are below the planned target and constraints in the delivery in services due to COVID-19 expressed by partners; but as well, there has been a decrease in reporting compliance by partners.

NeedsThe overall food security situation, which is a direct consequence of the cumulative and combined effect of desert locusts, flooding, COVID-19 as well as other recurrent shocks is worrisome and showing an overall deterioration. Food security projections signify a dramatic deterioration with 2.7 million people being in IPC 3 or worse (April to June) and then surging further to 3.4 million for the period July-September in the worst case scenario.

In April, the cluster assisted 1.6 million people in severe food insecurity (59 per cent), and more than 200,000 people with seasonal inputs. With seasonal inputs & livestock support, partners also reached 290,000 beneficiaries through conditional transfers for livelihood assets creation - this area of activity requires more investment given the damage that locusts will/have cause/d.

NeedsNutrition needs continue to be high in the country with for approximately 963,000 children under the age of five years (total acute malnutrition burden), who will likely face acute malnutrition through December 2020, including 162,000 who are likely to be severely malnourished (FSNAU post Deyr 2019 national SMART survey). Jilaal dry period (Jan-Mar) contributes to higher rates of malnutrition as contributing factors are on the rise (reduced crop production, milk availability and disease outbreaks).

Nutrition cluster partners reached a total of 74,127 new cases of severe acute malnutrition (SAM) and children 123,292 under five and 37,735 pregnant and breastfeeding women who have been admitted and treated for moderate acute malnutrition (MAM).

Needs2.6 million people are internally displaced in Somalia. New displacements are reported regularly due to armed conflicts, natural disasters and evictions. The displaced live mainly in informal settlements concentrated in the peripheries of major cities and towns. Around 2.2 million people are in need of shelter and NFI assistance most of whom live in makeshift shelters often in very congested informal settlements lacking security of tenure. They are exposed to extreme weather conditions, forced evictions and other protection risks. They also lack basic household items needed for daily survival. Decongestion is needed at settlements and shelters level to reduce the risk of transmission of COVID-19. A total of 237 IDP sites that host over 98,000 IDP households (HH) have been identified as high risk sites for COVID 19 transmission. Gu’ rains (April to June) started in March and intensified in April. Heavy rains in late April affected a number of locations including Baidoa (over 81,000 people affected), Bardheere (over 30,000 people affected) and Qardho (over 47,000 people affected). The Shelter Cluster estimates that over 500,000 people will be affected by flooding, of whom 80% (400,000 people) will need of shelter and NFI assistance.

During the month of April 2020, the Shelter Cluster partners assisted:2,342 people with non-food items (NFI) kits. This brings the total number of people assisted with NFIs in 2020 to 169,550. Standard non-food items kits consist of plastic sheets, blankets, jerry cans, sleeping mats, mosquito net, solar lamp and kitchen sets.9,820 persons were assisted with shelter kits. This brings the total number of people assisted with emergency shelter in 2020 to 142,487. A shelter kit includes plastic sheets, supporting poles, a rope for tying down the structure, nails and other items.PDMs were conducted for three distribution exercises. This brings the total number of PDM conducted in 2020 to 60 (31%) out of the 195 completed projects.Community Response and feedback mechanisms (CRFM) were established. This brings the total number of CRFM established in 2020 to 101 (52%) out of the 195 completed projects.

NeedsModerate to high flood risk is foreseen to persist in the coming weeks threatening urban and riverine populations, including in Belet Weyne (Hiraan) and Jowhar (Middle Shabelle). The risk of AWD/cholera has increased in particular in some flood-affected regions including the riverine areas. The most affected regions currently are Hiraan, Banadir and Lower Shabelle. Belet Weyne district of Hiraan region has recorded most cases. The heavy flooding comes at a time Somalia is facing the COVID-19 pandemic and the threat of desert locusts infestation.Restrictions on the entry and movement of WASH commodities coupled with price increases will have a serious impact on maintaining good hygiene practices. This could further exacerbate the severity of COVID-19, with the highest impact felt in the most vulnerable populations. WASH humanitarian partners are scale up their response to the affected populations with life-saving assistance and WASH prevention activities to contain the spread of AWD/cholera cases in the hotspots of Somalia.

In April 2020, 55,814 beneficiaries were reached with access to sustainable safe water while 18,653 beneficiaries were reached through sanitation. WASH Cluster partners reported a total of 383,913 beneficiaries were reached with hygiene promotion activities particularly hygiene kits distributions. WASH partner services have also enabled 69,515 beneficiaries to access temporary Water such as water trucking and water source chlorination.
