UNFPA Somalia prioritises the continuity of essential and life-saving SRH and GBV services during humanitarian crises, targeting vulnerable women and girls, Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs), and persons with disabilities. In November 2022, UNFPA and its partners reached 65,579 people with SRH services and 20,708 people with prevention and response to GBV, including Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS) for women and girls. In addition, UNFPA reached 1,600 young people through youth-related activities.
The capacity of UNFPA partners is further strengthened to support the delivery of SRH and GBV services, and to respond to increasing needs. Health facilities and mobile clinics are providing services to support maternal and newborn health, birth-spacing options, and Clinical Management of Rape (CMR). MHPSS services are offered to survivors of GBV in safe spaces for women, girls, and young people, and in one-stop centers.
