Fragile States and Impacts on Healthcare

Abstract
Five years of climate-induced drought have left nearly half of Somalia’s population at the brink of starvation. Where rains have failed to fall, Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) - nearly all the work of Al-Shabaab extremists - have proliferated. This lethal combination of natural and social forces directly jeopardizes physical and mental health, leaving countries such as Somalia with some of the worst health indicators on the planet, including a life expectancy (56 years) nearly three decades short of Japan.
