Since 1991, Somalia has essentially been a collapsed state and has experienced chronic food insecurity, widespread violence, and recurring droughts and floods.  The social costs of war have been enormous, leaving Somalia with some of the lowest human development indicators in the world.  Sustained life-saving assistance, coupled with interventions aimed at building resilience, are critical to helping vulnerable households meet basic needs, reduce malnutrition, and protect livelihoods.

Somalis are forging a promising path forward, after years of state failure and conflict.  The creation of regional states, rebuilding of institutions, and positive re-engagement with the international community point to a brighter future for the country and the region. USAID supports Somalia's aspirations for durable stability, democracy and prosperity. We help save lives, alleviate human suffering, and build resilience to disasters.

USAID is also working to reduce the appeal of extremism in Somalia through programming that fosters good governance, promotes economic recovery and growth, offers youth skills training, and works to increase social cohesion through improved community with government relationships. Our programs are planned and carried out with local partners in the context of Somali culture and values.

South Sudan has been embroiled in civil war for much of its history, before and since its independence from Sudan in 2011.  In December 2013, a political crisis sparked fighting in South Sudan’s capital, Juba, which quickly spread to other parts of the country.  According to research published by the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine in 2018, an estimated 383,000 South Sudanese have died as a result of the war.  Some 3.7 million remain displaced—nearly a third of the population—1.5 million internally and 2.2 million as refugees in neighboring countries.

According to the U.N., the conflict in Syria had resulted in more than 400,000 deaths as of April 2016—more than double the figure reported the previous year by the U.N. Nearly 13.5 million people are in need of aid inside Syria and face threats, displacement, hunger, injury and death due to the appalling tactics of the Asad regime and extremist groups such as the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL).

Tanzania is one of Africa's fastest growing economies, with nearly 7 percent annual GDP growth since 2000. However, widespread poverty persists. Almost half of Tanzania's population is living on less than $1.90 per day. High population growth and low productivity in labor-intensive sectors like agriculture, which employs 75 percent of the population, limit broad-based economic growth.

The Gambia is a small West African country, surrounded by Senegal, with a narrow Atlantic coastline. The smallest country on the mainland of Africa, The Gambia is known for its diverse ecosystems around the central Gambia River. The country has a population of just over 2 million inhabitants.
