PARTICIPATING ORG REFERENCE ROLE TYPE
In 2004 Oxfam Novib set up a Liaison Office in Nairobi, Kenya in order to support the Strengthening Somali Civil Society Program, at the request of the EU. This request was based on Oxfam Novib's work in Somalia to date, but intended to be more widely directed atthe entire civil society sector and the specific context in which it is operating in a post-conflict country. The program started with consulting local organisations in Somalia and Somaliland to get a complete picture of the sectors and regions where they are active, the challenges they face and the relationship between civil society, local political structures and the private sector. A program was then developed to strengthen the institutional development of Oxfam Novib's partners and those of other Oxfams, as well as a range of new NGOs. In the first year local consultants were trained in Somalia. They were then seconded to civil society organisations to build their capacity in financial and organisational management. Furthermore, workshops were organised on specific themes suchas human rights and the role of civil society in the Somali context. The Liaison Office is now going to support the expansion of the program, focussing on strengthening both organisation and project management, while facilitating more training in the fields of civic education, governance, human rights and women's rights, HIV and AIDS and child protection. Over the years, the Somalia Country Office has expanded its intervention on short term humanitarian response as well as development development interventions. In 2015/2016, a decision was reached to move the Country Programme operation, which was largely in Nairobi, from Nairobi to Hargeisa. The country office has a small office in Nairobi , Kenya and large operations office in Hargeisa, Somaliland.

General
The situation in Somalia is worsening as more districts are affected by heavy rains and flooding. According to the latest report from OCHA, 33 out of 74 districts are now flooded, up from 21 two weeks ago. The death toll has risen to 55 people, including14 children, as 14 more people were swept away by the floods. The number of people displaced by the disaster has reached 695,000, out of a total of 1.7 million people impacted. The floods have also caused extensive damage to farmland, properties, and infrastructure. Some bridges are at risk of collapsing or have already been destroyed. The Juba River is overflowing along its entire course, posing a high risk to several towns and villages. Baardheere district is the most affected in Jubbaland whereby the bridge which is an importantconnecting hub to five regions (Gedo, Bay, Bakol, lower Juba, and Middle Juba) has completely collapsed due to heavy waves of floods. According to SWALIM released flood alert, the forecast for the next week indicates more heavy rain in southern Somalia. In Beletweyne, the catastrophe claimed the lives of 20 people and triggered a surge in the prices of essential goods, which went up by 12% after the floods and may continue to rise if the situation does not improve. The floodwaters damaged the transportation network, especially the vital bridge that links the east and west sides of the city and facilitates the delivery of food supplies from Bossaso and Galkayo. This highlights the pressing need for humanitarian aid and coordinated action to address both immediate and long-term recovery needs. The floodwaters isolated residential areas, farmlands, and key infrastructure, resulting in significant displacement and evacuation of thousands of people. The most urgent humanitarian needs are clean water, food, shelter, and medical assistance, as there is a high risk of waterborne diseases spreading in the affected areas. However, the primary need for the affected flood communities includes the MPCA that provide quick support to withstand the shocks as the result of the flood crises. Food distribution, safewater provision and shelter are highly needed as per the joints assessments conducted both in Baardheere and Beletweyne districts of Gedo and Hiran regions.
