8/8 Cautiously engaging Al-Shabaab on shared climate challenges could pave the way for peace. By prioritising water and services in all areas, Somalia’s government can meet people’s needs, build trust, and lay the groundwork for dialogue with the militants to end the conflict.

7/8 Even with a political deal or Al-Shabaab's decline, climate change will still challenge Somalia. Tackling its impacts eases hardship, weakens Al-Shabaab, and helps prevent future threats. @OmarSMahmood and I break things down here.#ClimateResilience youtube.com/watch?v=TdxNG8L4…

5/8 Deforestation in Somalia for wood burning and charcoal production has led to devastating consequences. It worsens drought and floods and has also funded the militant group Al-Shabaab in the past. We filmed bags of charcoal and wood transported outside Kismayo.

3/8 Somalia needs sand dams, solar irrigation & flood defences to safeguard livelihoods. A $95M Green Climate Fund project offers hope to rebuild water systems & restore land. Transparency is crucial for future investments. We visited a @WorldVision project near Baidoa.🌍💧

2/8 Al-Shabaab uses water strategically during extreme weather events like the 2023 drought. Our “Mapping Conflict” video shows how the group builds dams and canals to control resources and pressure people in areas it dominates. crisisgroup.org/global/mappi…
