Annual report

This report presents the progress and achievements made in Somalia by UNICEF with its partners from January to December 2001. It represents a comprehensive overview covering all programmes funded through UNICEF Regular Resources and Other Resources raised against the country programme, and through the United Nations Consolidated Inter-Agency Appeal for Somalia.

The year 2001 marked the beginning of a new three-year country programme for UNICEF in Somalia. Prevailing circumstances required flexible operational modalities, the reinforcement of different types of partnerships and prioritisation of activities based on local realities.

The UNICEF country programme operates from three geographic areas, defined as Zones in Somalia:

  • Hargeisa in the Northwest Zone (NWZ), ?Somaliland?

  • Bossaso in the Northeast Zone (NEZ), ?Puntland?

  • Baidoa in Central and Southern Zone, (CSZ)

Long-term rehabilitation and development efforts were carried out, particularly in the northern regions under the Somaliland (NWZ) and Puntland (NEZ) administrations. Various projects supported by UNICEF and other organisations assisted the administrations and worked with communities in strengthening policy development and planning. In CSZ, UNICEF implemented programmes in close collaboration with local and international partners, and in conjunction with communities.
