Malnutrition levels are very alarming, particularly among children. Even though reports currently indicate that a famine was likely averted during the last months of 2022, the likelihood of worsening situation in 2023 is great. Reports of a severe El Niño phenomenon with extreme temperatures by the latter half of this year will further complicate the situation for Somalia. Without further investments in resilience building efforts such as social protection systems and improved food systems, the humanitarian caseload, and with it the risk of famine, will increase significantly. Such interventions should incorporate the HDP Nexus to explore how to integrate actions related to peace-building and stabilization with development interventions and humanitarian assistance, particularly in areas that are newly liberated from Al-Shabaab. In addition, access to financing for poor communities and women and stable income sources as well as skills adapted to a changing climate and rapidly expanding urban economy will be needed. It is also vital that such support is provided for extensive periods to facilitate graduation."}, {"bbox": [95, 578, 1135, 634], "category": "Text", "text": "Identification of main stakeholders and corresponding institutional and/or organisational issues (mandates, potential roles, and capacities) to be covered by the action:"}, {"bbox": [148, 643, 1122, 700], "category": "List-item", "text": "* As duty-bearers, relevant line ministries and government institutions should be involved in coordination and policy-making, based on their mandate and respective areas of expertise."}, {"bbox": [148, 709, 1122, 845], "category": "List-item", "text": "* As duty-bearers, local or municipal authorities have the mandate to facilitate the implementation of the action at the local level and they should be enabled to play an important role in relation to their constituencies for instance during the design of community action plans and initiatives.
