Resumen
Descripción
Drought has now spread across all of Somalia – from the north’s largely pastoral arid lands, down through the central and southernmost breadbaskets. In 2016, Somalia’s two main rainy seasons were poor, both Gu (April-June) and Deyr (October-December), creating a domino effect of losses for vulnerable farmers and pastoralists. Rural families need urgent support to make it through the harsh dry months of the Jilaal season (January-March), and make the most of the upcoming Gu rains. FAO’s Rapid Res ults Drought Response Plan is a time sensitive call for funds. It responds to the most pressing food security and livelihood needs of people affected by drought across Somalia. The Plan focuses on four short-term tangible results that need to be delivered for families to preserve their sources of food and livelihoods: (i) immediate cash relief, (ii) livestock preservation, (iii) a Gu harvest in 2017, and (iv) livelihood diversification.
