Tenders Are Invited For Rehabilitation Of Surface Water Reservoir (Barkad) Shidalehe (Durdur) In Ceerigabo, District, Sanaag Region, Somaliland

Tenders are invited for Rehabilitation of 1 Surface Water Reservoir (Barkad) Shidalehe (Durdur) in Ceerigabo, District, Sanaag Region, Somaliland 2. Project Background As recurrent droughts, poor natural resource management, population increase and inadequate early warning systems weaken the livelihoods of pastoralists and agro-pastoralists in Somaliland. Severe droughts in 2011, 2016-18 and 2022 resulted in crop failures and high livestock mortality. In favourable years, flash floods, desert locusts and cyclones damaged the farms and pastureland, destroying livelihood assets beyond a sustainable level. Consequently, herders and farmers have to give up traditional livelihood systems and move to IDP camps in and around the big towns such Burao, Ainabo, and Hargeisa (e.g. Burao town is home to 22 IDP camps). Somalis living in protracted displacement rely mostly on kinship support and relief programs. Displaced communities (predominantly women and children) live in crowded IDP camps with limited amenities for WASH (water, latrines, sanitation), health, shelter, security and education. Food insecurity and malnutrition are present as a consequence of reduced milk production and consumption, low food stocks, unfavourable economic conditions after successive failed rains; inadequate quality of care for infants and young children, and insufficient health services. Displaced households find it difficult to move out of the IDP camps in the foreseeable future because of uncertainty about access to land/property at the place of origin, access to services incl. education and networks providing a degree of security.
