What we do

Programs

Health and nutrition, MCH, WASH, livelihoods, education, NCDs, emergencies, protection, and community development — each in its own place, drawn from NASDO’s field work in Somalia.

Health and nutrition

Providing lifesaving nutrition care and guidance to mothers and children across Somalia, from clinics to displaced communities, ensuring every child receives the support they need to thrive.

Maternal and child health

Providing personalized nutrition, care, and education for mothers and children, ensuring seamless support from pregnancy through early childhood at NASDO MCH centres.

Water, sanitation and hygiene

Empowering communities with hands‑on hygiene kits, handwashing campaigns, and flood‑risk education to curb waterborne disease after every storm.

Livelihoods and food security

Empowering families to rebuild stable livelihoods and secure food access, so health gains last beyond crises.

Community development

Building lasting change from the ground up—empowering local voices, strengthening capacities, and linking communities to services for sustainable progress.

Protection and PSEA

Protecting every person in our care, NASDO enforces a zero‑tolerance policy against sexual exploitation and abuse, offering comprehensive training, confidential reporting, and swift, survivor‑centred investigations.

FGM and public health awareness

Empowering communities through education on FGM, HIV/AIDS, diabetes, and other health challenges—partnering with the Ministry of Health and universities to build a healthier future.

Education and health training

Empowering Somali students and communities through hands‑on health‑science training, nutrition education, and practical clinic‑based learning that turns classrooms into real‑world care hubs.

Non-communicable diseases

Building a stronger future by raising diabetes awareness, strengthening primary care, and shaping national NCD prevention plans across Somalia.

Emergency and flood response

Providing lifesaving care right at home—medicines, hygiene kits, and screenings—so families displaced by floods and rains can stay healthy while roads close.

Gender-based violence awareness

Building lasting community resilience: NASDO’s integrated outreach blends health, nutrition, education, and GBV awareness to empower families and leaders in Mogadishu, Jowhar, and nearby villages.
