El Nino Southern Oscillation led to more than five years of below average rainfall in Somalia. The impact can be managed by supporting an early warning system for government agencies with information for preparedness actions: water rationing or planning for life saving water provision. Implementing an early warning system in fragile contexts has many challenges that have affected timely data collection, including but not limited to access, safety, and security among other logistical challenges.
