SOS CVI is a Global Federation of National and Member Associations working in 137 countries and territories with focus to provide alternative care for children who have lost parental care, or at risk of losing. SOS Children’s Villages in Somalia is a Member Association of the Global Federation which has officially been working in Somalia since 1983. SOS Children’s Villages concept, the organization pioneered a family approach to the long-term care of orphaned and abandoned children in Somalia. SOS has a zero-tolerance policy on child safeguarding and prevention of sexual harassment and exploitation at work place.
SOS Children’s Villages in Somalia operates across four regions, providing a wide range of essential services. These regions include various districts such as Heliwa, Garasbaley, Kahda, Dharkenley, and Daynile within the Banadir Regions. Additionally, SOS operates in the Bay and Bakool regions in the southwest-state, as well as the Middle-Shabelle region in Hirshabelle State.
In response to the outbreak of civil war in 1990, SOS CV Somalia swiftly launched a substantial medical emergency response and relief program. This involved repurposing the existing education program, which covered kindergarten to university levels, into an emergency hospital. The mother and child clinic also transformed into a vital component of this emergency relief initiative.
Over time, SOS’s impact has expanded significantly. Presently, SOS Children’s Villages actively provides essential health, nutrition, WASH (Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene), protection, and education services across five distinct regions of Somalia. These regions include the Bay, Bakol, Benadir, Lower Shabelle, and Middle Shabelle areas. Through its comprehensive initiatives, SOS CV Somalia remains dedicated to enhancing the well-being and development of vulnerable communities in these regions.
