CFAs: Emergency Initiative in Response to the Humanitarian and Environmental Crisis in Somalia
من نحن
The Emergency Initiative in Response to the Humanitarian and Environmental Crisis in Somalia, launched by the AICS Office in Nairobi, provides targeted grant funding to address urgent humanitarian needs, protect access to essential services, and strengthen community resilience across Somalia. Operating within a Humanitarian-Development-Peace framework, the program combines immediate life-saving interventions with early recovery, resilience-building, preparedness, and anticipatory action to address the compounding impacts of the 2026 Deyr season and projected conditions through 2027. Eligible intervention areas include water, hygiene, environment, natural resource management, climate change, agriculture, food security, health, and nutrition. Supported activities must deliver a rapid, inclusive, safe, dignified, and responsible humanitarian response adhering to applicable international standards. The geographic focus comprises specific target areas split into two lots: Lot 1 covers Beletweyne District (Hiraan Region) and Jowhar District (Middle Shabelle Region), while Lot 2 covers Daynile and Kahda districts (Banadir Region) and Afgooye District (Lower Shabelle Region). The total available allocation for the initiative is EUR 4,000,000, consisting of EUR 2,500,000 for Lot 1, EUR 1,250,000 for Lot 2, and EUR 250,000 designated for AICS Nairobi management costs. Project duration and implementation timelines align with standard emergency response parameters.
