Back from the Field: Frauke Ossig on MSF’s Work in Somalia

Description

Malnutrition admissions at MSF facilities in Mudug surged in 2025 up 46% for outpatient and 58% for inpatient cases, as drought-driven displacement, dried-up water sources, and sweeping funding cuts push 151,000 displaced people to the brink. Frauke Ossig, MSF's Operational Manager for Somalia, shares what she witnessed during a field visit and why, without urgent action, this year season will be worse.
