This report presents the evaluation of the 2011 Somali Red Crescent Society drought relief operation in Somaliland and Puntland in response to the humanitarian crisis that unfolded starting late 2010 and continues to affect large number of the population in Somalia as well as the wider Horn of Africa. While this evaluation was undertaken in March 2012, humanitarian actions supported by IFRC and implemented by the Somali Red Crescent Society (SRCS) are still on-going. This evaluation is therefore intended to inform the evolution of the response.

The main components of the intervention were health services, distribution of non-food items, food rations to schools and orphanages and support to water supplies.
