Health care for all
This project aims to provide up to 50,000 disadvantaged people/internally displaced persons with access to medical care and to offer Somali medical professionals living in Germany or other Western countries who are interested in temporarily returning to their homeland and using their professional skills and knowledge to benefit their country of origin the opportunity to work there for two years. The Somali diaspora has already proven itself a valuable resource for Somalia’s reconstruction in other projects.
Somalia’s public health system was largely destroyed during the civil war. Today, it is one of the weakest in the world. Medical care is extremely limited in large parts of the country, especially in rural areas. Only in the capital, Mogadishu, is the quality of hospitals somewhat better by Somali standards. Overall, there are fewer than two health facilities – public or private – per 10,000 people in Somalia, as well as nine hospital beds per 10,000 people.
Health services are particularly difficult to access for disadvantaged population groups. These include girls and women, people with disabilities, victims of violence, including gender-based violence, the elderly, and internally displaced persons.
Access to medical care and preventive care: More than 3.9 million people in Somalia lack life-saving medical care and preventive care. Those most exposed to health risks are refugees, pregnant women, breastfeeding women, young children, unvaccinated children, single-person households, the elderly, people with disabilities, and those with mental health problems. This is especially true for internally displaced persons, refugees, refugee returnees, and members of minority groups. They often have limited access to health care. A total of 60% of the population has limited access to health services. Access to birthing facilities is limited, and only 32% of all births take place with medically trained personnel. For these reasons, and because FGM or female genital mutilation is widespread (99%), there is an increased risk of complications from pregnancy or childbirth. The under-five mortality rate is 177/1,000 live births, and the maternal mortality rate is 1 in 14, the sixth highest in the world.
