This thesis aimed to define the concepts of food insecurity, aid dependency and recognizing the external and internal poverty effects in Somalia. The thesis defines the critical role of food aid organizations and political stakeholders who mainly concentrated on their vision of improving the Somali society's needs and reducing poverty, despite the fact that they still have so little to solve Somali poverty.
Somalia’s food insecurity involves a variety of causes such as political, economic, social, and environmental variables. The study investigates the role of economic reforms that affected the Somali economy that depended on the exchange goods between farmers and pastoralists. The thesis addresses the hidden gap in existing food security causes by exploring how innovation solves, corruption, crime and food shortages in practice.
At the end of the thesis, solutions for the critical features that require action in Somalia are presented. Potential problems with Somali poverty were locally identified. A direct solution to improve the non-consumption groups, engage in development processes, and reduce poverty via innovation and self-improvement were analyzed.
