Advocacy Specialist (NO.C), FT, Mogadishu, Somalia #133836 (Timebound Up to 31 December 2027) Somalia
Somalia has faced long-standing conflicts, political instability, and insecurity, compounded by droughts, floods, and food shortages. These factors have significantly impacted the health of the population and severely disrupted Somalia’s delicate healthcare system, leading to some of the poorest health outcomes for mothers and children worldwide. The leading causes of under-five mortality are pneumonia, diarrhoea, measles, and malnutrition, with pneumonia and diarrhoea alone claiming 21% and 18-20% of under-five deaths, respectively, while the leading causes of maternal mortality are postpartum haemorrhage and hypertension disorders. The Somali Federal Ministry of Health, acknowledging that despite significant improvements in health outcomes for women, children, and adolescents over recent decades, progress has stalled. The trend is further exacerbated by worsening rates of malnutrition, poor water supply, sanitation and hygiene, low health literacy for young people, and the impacts of conflict, climate change, the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic as well as other social determinants of health. These have impeded efforts to fulfil relevant commitments made to advance the objectives and targets of the Global Strategy for Women’s, Children’s and Adolescents’ Health (2016–2030) and the related road maps.
