Somali Resilience Program (SomReP)

Anticipatory Action plays a crucial role in SomReP’s resilience efforts. By acting before disasters strike, we reduce vulnerability, minimize damages and save lives. We were honored to share SomReP’s initiatives at the bi-regional Anticipatory Action Learning Event bringing together participants from World Vision East Africa and World Vision Middle East and Eastern Europe to exchange insights, share successes and tackle challenges collaboratively.

Today marks a significant milestone as we celebrate the successful upgrade of the Early Warning System—an achievement made possible under the EU #BREACH Project, funded by the European Union through Somali Resilience Program (SomReP). This upgraded system will allow The Somaliland National Disaster Preparedness and Food Reserve Authority (NADFOR) and other relevant government agencies to provide timely, quality & actionable alerts. It stands as a testament to the power of #collaboration and #innovation, aiming to create safer, more resilient communities. Thank you to all our partners and guests who helped us celebrate this momentous occasion.

Empowerment starts with connection🌾 We recently met with farmers from Bananeey in #Jowhar to discuss the transformative potential of M-DALAG. Through tools like tractor booking, crop disease reporting, & market price updates, farmers gain access to timely resources that aim to improve productivity & resilience. The feedback received & discussions held during these session are valuable to the #Riverine Project. Funded by the European Union through Somali Resilience Program (SomReP) we’re connecting farmers to real-time solutions—helping them save time, reduce costs, & boost productivity. Listening to their voices is how we ensure #MDALAG truly works for their needs.

Successful collaboration! The Somali Resilience Program MEAL team met with Ministry of Planning, Investment, and Economic Development, Monitoring and Evaluation Department team to strengthen partnerships in monitoring, evaluation, research, and capacity building. Together, we’ll continue driving research on women’s participation, VSLA sustainability, and resilience, sharing best practices to enhance our implementation strategies. #collaboration #ResilienceBuilding #ResearchforImpact

Dear humanitarian and innovation professionals, Response Innovation Lab needs your help! 🙏 Over the past few years, we have been building and enhancing data visualization tools to help individuals and organizations better access information about humanitarian innovation ecosystems in the places where we work. We have recently released a new version of our SMILE database that incorporates brand new features such as our first Ecosystem Index, a way to "score" the scale, scope and diversity of the organizations engaged directly or indirectly in humanitarian action and social innovation in a particular context. You can see our beta version with data from the Uganda refugee response here: https://lnkd.in/e-e-QhTV. We will soon be posting an Open Source version on GitHub so that the tool can be replicated in any context by anyone willing. We need you 🫵 to help us understand whether or not such a tool could help you or your organization in its work through filling a short, anonymous survey: https://lnkd.in/eRPb-e9j Please share this post to people in your network who might find this initiative useful -- our friends at the Università Ca' Foscari Venezia (and Sofia Scquizzato in particular) need as much data as possible to help us properly evaluate this tool. Thank you! ❤️

Our community mobilizers in #Jowhar are now equipped with the tools and knowledge to bring M-DALAG’s services to life! Last week, Shaqodoon conducted training sessions on the M-DALAG system, teaching mobilizers how to assist farmers with features like registration, tractor booking, and crop disease reporting. The mobilizers will play a key role in keeping information about market prices up-to-date, farmer engagement and knowledge sharing. Part of the EU #Riverine Project funded by the European Union through Somali Resilience Program (SomReP), #MDALAG is all about innovative solutions that empower farmers.
