More about the contribution
The project "Towards Generative Resilience and Climate adaptation for displacement affected communities in Somalia" (TERRA) is implemented by the Building Resilient Communities in Somalia (BRCiS) consortium, led by Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC). The project builds on the third phase of the larger BRCiS consortium support, where this intervention would add a new innovative type of resilience activities that directly connect rural communities with displaced populations in urban areas for improved food security and increase access to markets. Studies show that displaced women in urban areas of Somalia maintain strong economic connections with rural farmers in their areas of origin, which is vital for agricultural trade in urban markets. Many displaced households also continue to farm in rural areas, and ecosystem restoration efforts will sustain and increase their food productivity. By working together between rural and urban communities, both groups can further strengthen their resilience to shocks and increase their livelihood sustainability and income. This approach to deliberately program along the rural-urban continuum is new to Somalia, where resilience programs traditionally target either rural areas, or urban areas though durable solutions activities. Over time, BRCiS anticipates that this new approach will empower the target communities to serve as proof of strengthened resilience and exemplify models for further replication.

The overall project objective is to improve the food security of displaced populations in Somalia, including both urban/peri-urban communities hosting internally-displaces persons and the rural communities from which populations are displaced, among other cases, by climate shocks and environment degradation. The expected outputs of the contribution are: 1. Displaced populations increase their knowledge and use of regenerative, context-specific food production and environmental management practices. 2. Rural and urban displaced population actors along local food value chains work together to create value and augment their climate adaptation capacities. 3. Target communities benefit from and contribute to functioning Early Warning Systems linked to Early Action response mechanisms. Target group and geographic locations: The project primarily targets vulnerable displacement-affected communities in both urban and rural areas and will reach 165,046 individuals. TERRA will be implemented in 20 rural communities and 13 urban settlements split into four clusters across Bardere, Baidoa, Galkcayo and Jariban Districts. These four clusters and rural communities are based on BRCiS III's nature based area delineation exercise that produced clusters based on participatory mapping exercise of communities' natural resources, how they are being used and by whom and with what implication for conflict and stability. The 13 urban settlements have been provisionally selected based on their high level of socio-economic vulnerability and their pre-existing linkages to their surrounding rural areas.
