Worsening drought conditions across the country have left hundreds of thousands of Somalis facing severe food and water shortages. Some 5 million people (40 per cent of the population) are in need of humanitarian assistance. More than 1.1 million of these are in <em>&lsquo;crisis&rsquo; <\/em>and <em>&lsquo;emergency&rsquo;<\/em>. Nearly 1.1 million Somalis are internally displaced. More than 320,000 children under the age of 5 years, or one in eight, are currently estimated to be acutely malnourished and are need of urgent nutrition support. Of these, 50,000 children are severely malnourished and far more vulnerable than any other group. Widespread human rights violations and continued insecurity are increasing protection risks, driving displacement and weakening the already depleted resilience of the most vulnerable.<\/p>\n<p> <em>Please note that coffee will be served from 9.00 am to 11.30 am.<\/em><\/p>\n<p> Please confirm your participation by 11:00 AM Monday 16 January 2017, by providing your name and news organization to Kenneth Odiwuor, Odiwuor@un.org&nbsp;or Antonette Miday,&nbsp;Miday@un.org to ensure access.<\/p>\n<p><i>Distributed by APO on behalf of Office for Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA).<\/i><\/p>\n<div class=\"well well-sm\"><b>Media files<\/b><br \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.africa-newsroom.com\/files\/thumb\/db580da7ae9c663\/200\/70\" alt=\"Office for Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA)\"\/><br \/>Download logo<\/div>\n<p><small><strong>Source:<\/strong> <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.africa-newsroom.com\/press\/press-conference-invitation-launch-of-the-2017-humanitarian-response-plan-for-somalia?lang=en\">APO &#8211; Africa-Newsroom: latest news releases related to Africa<\/a><\/small><br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Press Conference Invitation &#8211; Launch of the 2017 Humanitarian Response Plan for Somalia: Launch of the 2017 Humanitarian Response Plan for Somalia: What: Launch of the 2017 Humanitarian Response Plan for Somalia Who: Peter de Clercq, Humanitarian Coordinator for Somalia When: 10.00 AM &#8211; 11.30 AM.
