Climate Change Through the Eyes of Smallholder Farmers 🌱
Climate change in Puntland is not abstract.
It is felt in disrupted seasons, unpredictable rainfall, water scarcity, and new pests that destroy crops and livelihoods.
In this video, smallholder farmers share—in their own words—how climate change has transformed farming, how they observe early signs of risk, and how they adapt through local knowledge, persistence, and innovation. They speak about coping strategies, success stories, and major challenges such as pests, water stress, and post-harvest losses.
Their message is clear:
👉 Displacement is not inevitable. Early warning and early action save livelihoods.
When farmers know early, they can act early.
When local knowledge is respected and shared, communities become more resilient.
When youth support monitoring, reporting, and preparedness, climate risks can be reduced before crisis turns into forced migration.
This video is part of Somali Civic Voice (SCV)’s Climate Mobility and Unsafe Migration Series, amplifying community voices and promoting youth-led, localized early warning and early action systems in Somalia.

Communities are adapting—but climate pressures are exceeding traditional coping mechanisms.
Pastoralists: “This drought is different from the past.”

Cold, drought, and distant water sources are forcing pastoralists to move livestock farther—deepening poverty and risk.

Climate change is not only drought and floods.
It affects temperatures, grazing patterns, and livestock health. Pastoralists now face colder nights that weaken livestock and threaten survival.

Pastoralist: "Cold nights are killing our goats.”

Climate impacts are changing daily life and resulting unsafe mobility. Therefore, adaptation must be informed, responsible, and collective.

THE SCIENCE & THE SHIFT- Understanding Climate Change:

"Somalia’s seasons once followed a rhythm. Today, that rhythm is broken.”

Climate change is not a sudden event—it is a long-term process driven by pollution, emissions, and human activity.

In Somalia, communities once relied on predictable seasons—Deyr, Jiilaal, Gu’, and Xagaa. Today, rainfall arrives late, falls unpredictably, or comes all at once—triggering floods, droughts, and displacement. Without strong water systems and early warning mechanisms, communities are forced to react after disaster strikes.

At Somali Civic Voice, we believe prevention saves lives—and youth must lead that prevention.

Youth-Led Early Warning & Climate Mobility in Puntland:

Climate change is already disrupting Somalia’s seasons, rainfall patterns, and livelihoods—pushing communities toward unplanned and unsafe mobility.

At Somali Civic Voice (SCV), we are not only raising awareness. We are advancing early warning, preparedness, and anticipatory action to reduce climate risks before displacement occurs—particularly in disaster-prone areas of Puntland.

In this context, SCV launched digital community engagement and consultation initiative titled “Youth-Led Early Warning & Climate Mobility in Puntland.”

The initiative aims to humanize climate-induced mobility, elevate youth and community voices, and shift the conversation from routinely reactionary crisis response to early action.

In December 2025, SCV documented climate realities deeply affecting communities across vulnerable areas of Puntland. Through our youth-led early warning and climate mobility initiative, we partnered with our trusted local digital media outlet, Dawan Films & Podcasting, to help elevate these voices in the public interest.

Over the next four days, Somali Civic Voice will share expert insights and lived experiences from the ground—building understanding, empathy, and action around climate risks, displacement, and youth-led solutions.

Somalia is not waiting for the climate crisis — we are living it. In Puntland, drought is tearing families apart. Mothers are giving birth with nothing to feed their newborns. A resident at Rabaable: > "No support has come to the vulnerable people."

This short documentary style video captures their voices, their dignity, and their fight to survive.

🎥 Watch. Listen. Share. Let their reality be seen — and let it move us to act.
