Abattoirs et bateaux de pêche pour des communes du Sud

Thanks to financing from the MINUSTAH, the townships of Moron and Chamberlain, in the department of the Grande Anse (south of the country), are given each a new slaughterhouse. In the same way, with the construction of a cold room and the concession of four boats by the NGO Food for the Poor to the township of Abricots, as well as the construction of a "fishing village" in the township of Bonbon, the fishing activity in these areas have taken a new flight.

Grâce au financement octroyé par la MINUSTAH, les communes de Moron et de Chambellan, dans le département de la Grand'Anse (Sud du pays), sont dotées chacune d'un nouvel abattoir.

For now, in spite of acute risks in some parts of the country, Somalia has successfully averted a food crisis,” How Aid in Cash, Not Goods, Averted A Famine In Somalia 08 September - Source: IPS News - 594 Words In February, when the government of Somalia sounded an alarm to the UN about risks of a famine in the country, the UN’s Office of Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), besides quickly shuffling a response team, was acting from a steep sense of history.
