5 Project Background
Decades of conflict and natural disasters including recurrent climate change followed by limited government and
institutional support have had a profound negative effect on the food security situation and social service sector in
Somalia. Nearly seven in ten Somalis live on less than USD 1.90 per day, the sixth-highest poverty rate in sub-Saharan
Africa. Poverty is both widespread and deep, particularly for households in rural areas and internally displaced persons
(IDP) settlements. The number of food-insecure people experiencing long-term stress is trending upward, indicating
that chronic food insecurity persists, requiring sustainable solutions. Recurrent climate-related shocks and political
instability are key drivers of food insecurity and pose continuing risks to crop production and food access. It is estimated
that a total of 6.7 million out of the 15.8m people face acute food insecurity (IPC 3 and above – crisis or worse) until
March 2023. Based on the above; WFP makes this call for a proposal to implement relief food assistance in Banadir,
Hiran and Midddle Shabelle regions.
6 Expected Results
a. Unconditional resource transfers to support access to food: Crisis- affected people receive unconditional food or
cash-based transfers to meet their basic food and needs during times of crisis and to support stabilityb. Improved
gender equality and women’s empowerment among WFP-assisted population
