Clowns without Borders visit to Somaliland
Posted: Tue Jan 18, 2011 2:39 am
An intertainment group called Clowns without Borders based in Ireland was visited in Hargeisa and Buroa with the help of UNHCRS Sub-office in Somaliland. This comedy group was engaged in performing drama show to the refugees and internally displaced children and youths in Somaliland.
Over the past 20 years when the former regime of Somalia was casted out, it had been experienced continuing callous chaos and alluring insecurity that resulted in heavy internal displacement where the most vulnerable groups of the population including children, women, elderly, disabled, ethnic minorities and other poor and marginalized people are greatly suffered.
The recurrent severe droughts and overwhelming poverty have similarly wholly contributed to the continues displacement. New arrival of IDPs either from South-Central Somalia, Putland and Eastern parts of Somaliland reach at Hargeisa capital and other regional towns including Berbera and Buroa. Somaliland is already hosted almost 100,000 IDPs whose condition was extremely poor and disappointing lacking about all necessities for life, which was similarly overstrained by the new IDP arrivals.
