Fifteen years after famine was declared in Somalia in 2011, a crisis that claimed hundreds of thousands of lives, World Vision is warning that the country stands on the edge of another severe hunger emergency. Persistent drought, compounded by a sharp decline in humanitarian funding, threatens to unravel years of progress made in strengthening food security and community resilience across the country.

World Vision Lebanon’s anticipatory action enabled rapid support for displaced families and protected children like Ali during Lebanon’s crisis.

At Kabuuka Primary School, the daily struggle for water once defined children’s lives more than learning. Pupils walked two kilometres to fetch unsafe water, leaving them exhausted, frequently ill, and often absent from class. For girls, the lack of water and sanitation was especially harsh during menstruation, leading to missed school days and stigma. Through World Vision Uganda’s intervention, a motorised water system was installed, bringing clean water directly into the school compound and surrounding community. Alongside new latrines and sanitation facilities, this transformed hygiene, dignity, and participation in learning—particularly for adolescent girls.

In South Sudan, girls like Shufa are forced from school into labour—hunger and displacement push millions of children’s futures to the brink.
