Dollo Ado district hosts Somali refugees in five refugee camps of Melkadida; Bokolmanyo, Melkadida, Kobe, Hilaweyn and Buramino. The first camp, Bokolmanyo was opened in Oct 2009 and followed Melkadida in 2010. In 2011, there was a major influx as a result of insecurity in Somalia, resulting in the establishment of Kobe, Hilaweyn, and Buramino camps in June 2011, August 2011 and November 2012 respectively. Refugees continue to arrive in small numbers since 2011. On 31 March 2018 (source: UNHCR ProGres) the total population is 217,494 with 21,010 under-five children. A joint UNHCR, WFP, ARRA, IMC and Humedica Standardized Expanded Nutrition Survey (SENS) was carried out in the five Somali refugee’s camps in Melkadida/Dollo Ado refugee camps from 20th March to 24th April 2018, with the main objective to assess the general health and nutrition status of refugees, and formulate workable recommendations for appropriate nutritional and public health interventions. A total of 1801 households were sampled.
