Humanitarian agencies have broadened and scaled-up their flood response in close coordination with the Federal Government of Somalia and member states. The flood response plan seeks US$59.85 million to deliver life-saving assistance over three months.
The plan includes delivery of shelter and non-food assistance as well as water and sanitation assistance to 400,000 people, rehabilitate damaged communal infrastructure including site maintenance in 277 IDP settlements, provide immediate food assistance to 200,000 people inflood-affected areas, and provide health and preventive services to 300,000 people; among other activities.
