El Niño disrupts weather—bringing floods and droughts that damage crops and raise food prices.

In Somalia, over six million people already face hunger. El Niño will worsen droughts and floods, threatening survival. The world must act now—support families in need now.

[Carl Skau @WFPChief]

The first 72 hours are critical. As rescue teams work to find survivors, @WFP teams are pre-positioning food and lending our logistics capacity to support a full response for the people of #Venezuela.

I spoke to @BBCWorld on the situation and need for fast action.

#EndOfSchoolYear
As another school year draws to a close, we extend our sincere gratitude to everyone who made school meals possible farmers, cooks, teachers, and our generous donors @CanadaDev @FranceinSomalia @JapanInSomalia @BMZ_Bund Via @KfW_FZ_int and @mafrakorea

[WFP Somalia @WFPSomalia]

#EndOfSchoolYear
Funding shortfalls could force us to scale back school meals by nearly 50% next school year, putting years of progress at risk.

Now is the time to act.Invest in school meals. Protect children’s futures.🍽️📚

Want to help a child get a nutritious meal as part of the school feeding programme? My friend @SaraCarolinaC explains how @WFPSomalia has been supporting this. 👇

[Marco Selva @MarcoSelva17]

Livestock is a key part of Somalia’s nutrition and economic wellbeing. Yet the drought is taking these away from families. Family livelihood is rapidly shrinking putting vulnerable Somalis in survival mood all year round.

🚨Burhakaba is facing a rapidly worsening crisis, with a real risk of famine-like conditions.

WFP is responding under extreme constraints but urgent support is needed now to avert catastrophe.

Hear from the WFP Deputy Country Director @BailletRaynatou for the latest update👇

[Marco Selva @MarcoSelva17]

Engaging with the incredible people of Somalia has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. Some of my best moments have been spent with communities. I couldn’t ask for more.

[WFP Somalia @WFPSomalia]

Beautiful. Resourceful. Resilient. This is Somalia. 🇸🇴

Beyond emergency relief, @WFP is investing in the long-term potential of Somalia’s agricultural lands, livestock sectors, and local businesses to achieve a hunger-free future.

For him, working for @WFP is personal — turning lived experience into a commitment to support others facing crisis and help build a stronger future for Somalia.

A new @WFP study suggests that people who were not previously experiencing hunger may now be at risk, driven by extreme price increases. These impacts are expected to intensify in the coming months, even if the conflict in the Middle East de-escalates.

In a region facing multiple and compounding crises, Berbera Port serves as a critical lifeline for @WFP—enabling delivery of life-saving assistance across the Horn of Africa and supporting diversified entry points amid Middle East disruptions.

[Andreia Fausto @fausto_andreia]

Kicked off the 1st Steering Committee of #ACALS funded by @AfDB_Group: bringing partners together to drive #resilience and long term solutions. Looking forward to the journey ahead. 🤝

[WFP Somalia @WFPSomalia]

In 2022 WFP, together with Government of #Somalia and partners, averted famine after the longest drought on record. A similar pattern has emerged and now famine looms. But what is the difference between 2022 and 2026? Abdikafi, Programme Policy Officer explains⤵️

[World Food Programme @WFP]

A new analysis shows millions more people struggling to meet basic food needs and, in some cases, being pushed into acute hunger due to the fallout of the Middle East crisis, in:
🔺 Afghanistan
🔺 Sri Lanka
🔺 Somalia

🆘 Worldwide, up to 45 million more people are at risk.

📣 The time to act is now.

#EndOfSchoolYear

A full stomach helps make room for big dreams.

As the school year ends, we celebrate the students whose ambitions inspire us all.

[WFP Somalia @WFPSomalia]

From a mother seeing her child recover…to a student learning without hunger…to a farmer growing her own income.

Together with @UNICEF, #JRP is linking nutrition, education & livelihoods across Somalia, helping families move beyond crisis.

Thanks to @KfW_FZ_int 🍅📚🌾

[World Food Programme @WFP]

⚠️ A new report shows the global fallout from the Middle East crisis is pushing millions more people deeper into hunger.

🔴 +2.5M in Somalia
🔴 +2.3M in Afghanistan
🔴 +1.3M in Sri Lanka

The impacts are expected to intensify in the coming months, even if the crisis de-escalates. https://t.co/zpgXt1K4wo

Unpredictable rains are deepening the crisis in Somalia.

Mahado and many others are already struggling to cope—hear her story below ⤵️

WFP continues to provide assistance, but funding gaps are limiting our capacity to scale up life-saving support.

Urgent support is needed❗
