Building a community center to facilitate community information sharing

Baidoa currently hosts the largest IDP settlements in South-Central Somalia, as a result of the protracted conflict and consecutive shocks that caused internal displacements. According to IOM’s monthly movement trend tracking, the influx of new arrivals in the past six months in Baidoa has surpassed more than 16,500 households, creating 44 new IDP camps. The majority of people fled their areas of origin due to drought and conflict, choosing Baidoa town as a hub for safety as well as for access to humanitarian assistance.

While infection rates in Afghanistan at first appeared meagre in comparison to other States, the month of May saw an eight to ten-fold increase in confirmed cases of Covid-19.

Areas facing the highest infection rates remain population centres such as Kabul and Herat, as well as communities living towards the western border with Iran.

An article in Le Monde newspaper one week ago carried a quote from the Afghan Minister of Heath, Ahmad Jawad Osmani, saying that the country’s health services had reached their maximum capacity in terms of patients.

La guerre au Yémen continue de faire rage et entre dans sa sixième année sans qu’une fin claire ne soit en vue. Les communautés ont dû s’adapter à l’incertitude de trouver du travail, de la nourriture et de la sécurité pour leurs familles. Avec peu de perspectives d’amélioration de la situation, une partie croissante de la population s’enfonce encore plus dans l’insécurité alimentaire alors que les ressources publiques se tarissent et que les emplois se font de plus en plus rares.
