IOM Somalia Multi-hazard Displacement Projections for July - September 2026 highlights displacement in Somalia due to climate change.

An estimated 197,560 people are projected to be displaced across all districts in Somalia between July and September this year. That’s enough to fill more than two FIFA World Cup stadiums.

Today, nearly 1.74 million internally displaced persons (IDPs) are living across top 5 districts of projected displacements in Somalia which is equivalent to filling more than 20 World Cup stadiums with people who have already lost their homes.

"Sitting around the table with our government partners at the FMS and FGS levels, national and international implementers, our field teams, and our donors has created a space for meaningful, practical discussions among those who drive coordination and enable localization." Hannah Mary Harrington - Programme Manager (Community Stabilization), IOM Somalia.

Every discussion throughout the 3-day Security, Stabilization and Solutions (3S) Alignment Workshop in Mogadishu has so far focused on one common objective: improving outcomes for the people and communities we serve.

Through stronger coordination, shared priorities and closer partnerships, IOM Somalia and its partners are working to ensure that stabilization efforts translate into tangible improvements in people's lives—from strengthening local governance and security to expanding opportunities for recovery and durable solutions.
