Somalia continues to grapple with one of the world’s longest-running and most complex humanitarian crises, marked by climate shocks, prolonged conflict, displacement, and chronic underfunding. Women and girls bear the heaviest burden, facing heightened risks to their health, safety, and dignity.
This brochure outlines UNFPA Somalia’s humanitarian priorities for 2025, focusing on lifesaving sexual and reproductive health services, protection for women and girls, and rapid response to emergencies. It also highlights the real-life impact of these efforts, through the stories of women like Iqra and Fatima, whose lives were transformed through access to essential care and protection services.
