(WHH) is one of the biggest private humanitarian and development organizations
in Germany. It was founded as the National Committee for the Freedom from
Hunger Campaign, of the Food and Agricultural Organization of the United
Nations (FAO), in 1962. Welthungerhilfe is non-profit, non-political, and
non-denominational. It has operations in about 40 countries worldwide (Asia,
Africa and Latin America). Welthungerhilfe has been active in Somaliland since
2001 as maintained an office in Hargeisa and now sub-offices in Borama and
Burao. Welthungerhilfe in Somaliland focuses on multi-sector approaches by
linking climate-adaptive Agriculture and Natural Resource Protection with
Economic Development, as well as safe, sustainable Water, Sanitation and
Hygiene solutions and Nutrition Practices at the household level. To empower
women and achieve gender equality, we recognize gender main streaming in our
projects and program as critical and strategic. We aim at strengthening
decision-making powers of marginalized groups through fostering an enabling and
respectful environment that includes men, women, youth, children, elderly, and
people with disabilities to support them in leading self-determined
lives.
