DOLO ADO, Ethiopia -
Poor rains in the Horn and East Africa have led to crop failure, loss of livestock and soaring food prices — and famine has been declared in five areas of southern Somalia. Somali refugees must walk for days or weeks to reach Dadaab, the world’s largest refugee camp in northeast Kenya, or the Dolo Ado camps in Ethiopia. The International Rescue Committee (IRC) is the primary agency providing water in Dolo Ado and has been responding to humanitarian needs in the camps for over a year.
We need your help as we scale up relief efforts to aid people devastated by the drought.
