Seven million people in Somalia could be at risk of famine amid East Africa's worst drought in decades.

For World Refugee Day 2022, the IRC and Instagram spotlight three creatives who, having fled their homes as refugees, brought more than they carried with them.

For the first time ever, the International Rescue Committee (IRC) is putting out a crisis alert to its annual Emergency Watchlist report. The IRC is calling for urgent action in Somalia, Ethiopia, and Kenya, with specific concern for intensifying famine in Somalia that has been dangerously neglected by the international community. By the time a famine is officially declared later this year, it will be too late to save hundreds of thousands of lives.
