Good News! Aid Dependence is Decreasing!

The number of Somalis needing aid has fallen by more than half a million because of increased food production, mostly in the south of the Horn of Africa state, a survey showed on Thursday.

In August last year 3.76 million people, about half the population, needed humanitarian aid. But a report by the U.N.’s Food Security and Nutrition Analysis Unit (FSNAU) said the number in need had now been reduced to 3.2 million.
