- Background
Action Against Hunger provides lifesaving malnutrition treatment, creates innovative solutions to hunger, and partners with communities to foster resilience and lasting change. Our holistic hunger prevention programs increase access to water, sanitation, and hygiene, strengthen health systems, improve livelihoods, and empower women. In Somalia, we have been on the frontlines of treating and preventing malnutrition for three decades. We respond to humanitarian crises, meeting the urgent humanitarian and development needs of the most vulnerable sections across the country in the three main sectors of health and nutrition, WASH and Food Security and Livelihoods
In 2023 Action Against Hunger reached 2.6 million people in Somalia in 28 (38%) of the districts in the country with lifesaving support. Our main donors are the World Bank, ECHO, Sida, French Embassy/CDCS, AICS Italy, the UN, Global Affairs Canada, GFFO, FCDO, EU among others.
