The humanitarian community in Somalia is expanding its focus on Anticipatory Action (AA) to proactively address climate-related shocks. An Anticipatory Action Implementation Plan was endorsed by the Emergency Relief Coordinator on October 3, 2026, combining forecasting, pre-agreed activities, and pre-arranged financing.

Somalia faces a very high INFORM risk class, indicating significant vulnerability to hazards and insufficient coping capacity. Humanitarian funding remains well below requirements.

The country is experiencing significant internal displacement, with over 112,000 individuals displaced. The impact of climate-related shocks on these populations is a major concern.

The specific details of the Anticipatory Action plan and its immediate implementation timeline are not yet covered in recent reporting.
