The flooding situation in southern #Somalia is continuing to worsen, with 334,000 people already forced to flee their homes and 1.2 million people impacted.

Our team and local partners @LLG_aid are on the ground responding in very challenging circumstances.

Last month, CEO @colleenconcern and @ADMupdates Chief Sustainability Officer Alison Taylor met with @ConcernKenya in #TanaRiver to visit our LEAF program and talk to community members to learn about the impact that is being made through this powerful collaboration.

In December, the United Nations Security Council adopted Resolution 2664 which changed the way UN sanctions are implemented, to ensure they don't negatively impact humanitarian work.

Even this super tiny, remote, mountainous border crossing in Slovakia has multi-hour waits and a steady stream of people fleeing from Ukraine. @Concern

[Kirk Prichard @KirkPrichard]

At Polish/Ukrainian border with @Concern. Cold, very long wait for those trying to cross. Working across the region to assess and then meet needs.

[InterAction @InterActionOrg]

1: The situation in #Afghanistan is dire. Action is needed NOW.

[Kirk Prichard @KirkPrichard]

@Neon_Switch_ @Concern Hi Shola, not right now in South Sudan. Drought can definitely be a problem in the area but unfortunately with the way the climate is now it tends to swing wildly from drought to flood. There are very few 'normal' years anymore.

[Kirk Prichard @KirkPrichard]

Not getting any attention, but South Sudan is experiencing the worst flooding in 50+ years. 600k displaced. Saw IDP settings with thousands of people and not a single latrine or water point, entire year's planting wiped out. @concern

[Concern Worldwide US @concernwwus]

Concern Worldwide has been on the ground in Haiti for 26 years. Our thoughts are with the people of Haiti - we are currently coordinating with partners in the affected areas and preparing to respond as needed.

A 7.2 earthquake struck #Haiti this am, followed by big after shocks . Our Country Director confirms @Concern staff safe although some have relatives in affected areas & anxiously awaiting news. Scale of damage, injuries, fatalities still coming through. Tough, though times.
