#WorldFoodDay More than 5000 individual cases identified in less than 4 months in need of nutrition support in Somalia. As a result of climate-related shocks, several districts in Somaliland continue to face high levels of food insecurity and malnutrition, with women and children worst affected. 👩👧🌍 In response to the crisis, Acted, in partnership with Candlelight and Barwaaqo Volunteer Organization (BVO) 🤝, implemented a one-year project that aims to improve access to nutrition and health services for vulnerable, displaced, and rural populations in crisis affected areas in Somaliland. The project has contributed to identify 5121 Pregnant and Lactating Women (PWL) and children under 5, in a situation of Acute or Severe Malnutrition. They have benefited from on site treatment and nutritional supplements to regain strength and restore their appetite. In line with its #3ZERO goals, Acted's programming aims to support households and reduce hunger by addressing basic food needs across its 43 countries of intervention.
