Xaawo once struggled to feed her children. Her small business now helps her put food on the table.
Funding cuts have forced us to scale back these vital interventions. We must not leave lifesaving projects like this without support. @OCHASom@CBPFs@shf_somalia@UNOCHA_ROSEA

We conducted GBV awareness training on the Code of Conduct, GRM, and risk mitigation for project employees, GBV & GRM focal points.
The training brought together 30 teachers, 15 GRMs, & 15 GBV focal points to strengthen prevention & response mechanisms. @DRCSomalia
We’re engaging communities through structured dialogues on GBV in Waaberi & Wadajir districts.
In each district, 8 community dialogue leaders (CDLs) - service providers, parents, community leaders & youth groups - are leading sessions to strengthen GBV prevention & response.

Thank you @UNFPA_SOMALIA for making these safe spaces possible, where women and girls are healing, connecting, and rebuilding their lives with dignity.
In Somalia, progress in 2025 was possible because of strong partnerships. #UNHCRSomalia thanks all our donors for enabling protection, assistance and solutions for refugees, IDPs and host communities. Your support continues to make a real difference as we move into 2026.
Strengthening collaboration is key to building a powerful movement to end female genital mutilation (FGM).

Digitial violence is real violence.
