2. Where and how should the UNHCR let the Somali people to get educated, and then have business (working for money)?

They can just stay in their home, Somalia, but developing the systems in Somalia, so they would have a better environment to work. When they develop, they should have school, companies, and other new buildings for their education and business for future. The reason they should be staying in their home is because they wouldn’t be welcomed to other people in other country, because people in other country wants people to let them have benefit and more helpful, not uneducated people like those Somali people.

3. What kind of jobs would Somali people be able to take for their future?

So far, there isn’t really a perfect, or matching job for the Somali people. This can lead them to work in a factory, or other physical jobs, spending time.

We can use seawater greenhouse to grow crops. It’s not too expensive and don’t have to bring chunks of water from other countries.

5. How much do supplies sent to Somalia cost?

The therapeutic food for a malnourished child cost $7; therapeutic feeding kits, which can feed 5children costs $50; Survival kits, such as blankets, mattress, soap, and kitchen set costs $100; All weather tent as shelter costs $450; nutrition surveying kits, such as weighing scales, height measuring thing, etc costs $5500.

6. How much food Al Shabab is stealing?

Al Shabab is stealing around 50% of the food sent to Somalia. The food sent to refugee camps is safe, but those that went to Somalia, cannot be sent easily. Also, in Somalia, there are about 3.2million people that need aid.

7. What can you do to get past al shabab

I found a way to get past al shabab and stop them from stealing our reso urces. There are two ways to help Somalia and their problem. The first is that you can take soldiers that are armed with weapons on the transportation to Somalia. Then when they have reached their destination you could alight them to go for the next bunch whilst those soldiers are guarding the resources. Then let those soldiers stay there then have some other people guard the transportation. The other way is to build a electric fence all around the food so that it is well protected.

8. How can you find a way to make a safer home for the people.

You can build something around the camp like a brick walls, and ask the Somalians to help out. Then put some barbed wire or broken glass on top to keep people from climbing over. There is also another way you can put an electric fence to keep the al shabab.

9.How can you help Somalia’s get to the camp safely.

Every time Somalia’s people have a hard time crossing over to the camp. We could drive an armored truck with a few soldiers in it then take the Somalians bunch by bunch back to the camp safely.

Poor hygiene and environmental sanitation are major causes of diseases such as cholera among children and women. Cholera is endemic and claims hundreds of lives annually, particularly in densely populated areas. Access to clean water is essential for prevention of diarrhea diseases and cholera.

9. What is cholera?

An infectious and often fatal bacterial disease of the small intestine, typically contracted from infected water supplies and causing severe vomiting and diarrhea.

10. What is UNICEF doing currently to help sanitation issues in Somalia?

Already is 2005; United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund (UNICEF) has began to establish hand washing facilities in schools, conducting hygiene and sanitation training in schools, and promoting hand washing and correct storage of drinking water. UNICEF reached over 1,130,000 people, including an estimated 226,000 children under-five, with safe water during 2009 through support to the operation, maintenance and chlorination of 1,777 water systems and sources.
