AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Breastfeeding Policy Boost: Somalia, with UNICEF and WHO, has officially signed and launched national Breast-milk Substitutes (BMS) Regulations to curb risky formula marketing and protect infant health during World Breastfeeding Week. Maternal & Child Health Pressure: New reporting links aid cuts to a sharp rise in newborn deaths across sub-Saharan Africa, with neonatal mortality up 81% among refugee women—an alarming signal for survival and care access. Malaria Risk Shifts: Studies warn climate change is “moving” malaria—raising childhood risk in southern and East Africa while easing pressure in today’s hottest areas—meaning Somalia’s malaria planning may need to adapt by region. Nutrition & Cancer Prevention: A Mogadishu community study examines fruit and vegetable dietary practices tied to cancer prevention, adding local data to broader non-communicable disease prevention efforts. FGM Funding & Visibility: Coverage highlights how Somaliland’s FGM reality remains largely invisible to renewed international diplomacy, while anti-FGM progress faces funding gaps. Somalia Health System Delivery: A World Bank portfolio review says health is the strongest-performing sector in Somalia, but large sums still sit undisbursed—while education, energy, fisheries, and digital lag.
