Weekly Humanitarian Bulletin Issue # 25, 17 - 24 June 2011 Fri, 24 Jun 2011 14:02:50 +0000 Source: UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs Country: Somalia Key Overall Developments Concerning malnutrition rates Worrying reports from refugee camps in Kenya and Ethiopia indicate that the Global Acute Malnutrition (GAM) rates among the newly arrived from Somalia are as high as 45 per cent, exceeding all emergency thresholds, and death rates are at emergency levels. These high rates are clear indicators of the dire food security situation in Somalia. At least 75 per cent of the estimated 241,000 malnourished children in Somalia reside in the volatile southern regions. In some parts of southern Somalia, 1 in 3 children are malnourished. In August 2010, the national level of acute malnutrition was 15.2 per cent with 16.6 per cent specifically in southern regions. By January 2011, the situation had deteriorated in most parts of the country and a national GAM rate of 16 per cent was reported, with significant deterioration to 25 per cent in the south. Another rapid assessments conducted in April 2011 in the south confirmed a sustained crisis, clearly illustrating the impact of the drought in the south, coupled with insufficient humanitarian assistance. Access to reach the vulnerable populations in the southern regions has remained a major challenge for humanitarian actors in the country. |
