Somalia, faces a severe water scarcity crisis driven by a confluence of factors. Increasingly frequent and intense droughts, exacerbated by climate change, deplete vital water sources. This is compounded by inadequate infrastructure, limiting access to reliable water supplies, and the influx of internally displaced persons, straining existing resources.
Access to clean, safe water is not a privilege; it’s a fundamental human right. Without it, life, health, and dignity are compromised. Arlaadi Relief and Development recognizes this crucial truth and works tirelessly to ensure vulnerable communities have access to this essential resource.
We work in partnership with local agencies to provide long term solutions to the water crisis. We:
- Deliver clean water directly to IDP camps, ensuring access to this life-saving resource.
- Prioritize the most vulnerable, including women, children, and the elderly.
- Understand the logistical challenges, and work to provide a reliable service.
