A Challenging Place to be a Child | In Their Words

Claire Sanford, Director of Conflict and Humanitarian at Save the Children, speaks about the growing humanitarian crisis in Somalia—and what recent international aid cuts mean for children and families on the ground.   Drawing on years of experience and multiple visits to Somalia, Claire explains how drought, conflict and funding cuts are combining to create a dangerous situation for millions of children. From rising malnutrition to health centres closing and essential services disappearing, she shares what she has seen first-hand, and why urgent action is needed now.
