Nutrition
Area Focus: The nutrition situation in Somalia has improved, with the national average Global Acute Malnutrition (GAM) rate dropping from 15.9% to 12.4%. However, flood-prone areas remain at risk, especially if floods cause disease outbreaks and hinder humanitarian services. Vulnerable groups include children under five and pregnant and breastfeeding women.
JUMAN’s Role: JUMAN focuses on improving access to quality diets through food/cash-based approaches and social behavior change communication.
