US$5 Million Grant in Response to ‘Super El Niño’ Floods in Somalia, including the creation of an anticipatory action framework to protect school children from future climate hazards.
Education Cannot Wait announced the latest grant for Somalia which “will provide life-saving access to education for girls and boys impacted by massive floods, enhance preparedness to respond to sudden onset emergencies and create anticipatory action framework to protect schoolchildren from future climate hazards”.
“By re-enrolling or enrolling flood- and displacement-affected learners in formal or non-formal education programmes, we aim to deliver tailored solutions that safeguard the rights and dignity of children and enhance preparedness against future climate shocks,” said Mohamed Abdi, Country Director of the Norwegian Refugee Council.
