“Dr. Christopher Laker, Deputy Resident Representative for UNDP, said: ‘We are very proud of Bilan Media. Bilan Media is one of the most prominent projects in the UNDP Somalia portfolio. We would like to extend our gratitude and appreciation to everyone who made this possible.”
“There was no food, no water. Hunger was overwhelming our family, we had nothing left to survive on.”
Nuuney, a displaced mother in #Baidoa, arrived two months ago but still struggles to find enough food.
#UNICEF and partners are responding, but needs remain high. #Drought
In #Somalia, water shapes futures—whether families stay or are forced to move. In 2025, IOM & authorities reached 86,000 people with safe water. But only 5% of drought-affected communities are covered. Investing in water builds stability, dignity & lasting resilience.
