The
inflicted livestock ban and poor 'gu' rains with latent drought
perspective, stress pastoralist livelihoods in eastern parts of
Ethiopian Somali Region, Somaliland, Puntland and Somalia
Multi-Agency Assessment Mission: 23 July - 3 August 2001.
By Yves Guinand, UN-Emergencies Unit for Ethiopia.
Post-drought
Somali Region struggles with past emergency legacy
Tries to compare the present general, non-humanitarian and
particularly the humanitarian situation in the Somali Region with
the situation that prevailed a year ago at the peak of the drought
and humanitarian crisis. The objective is also to give an overview
and to reveal and explain the root causes and contemporary
circumstances that led to the emergency legacy humanitarian organizations
are presently confronted with. In addition, the
report addresses a few particular issues such as the Sheikash clan
migration and settlement process, which are not directly part of
the comparative evaluation of humanitarian activities. Prepared by
Yves Guinand, UN-EUE, May 2001.
