WHO
Amid Mogadishu's ongoing violence, the World Health Organization recently sent a specialized trauma surgeon to the Somalia capital to train dozens of local health professionals in treating trauma cases and delivering emergency care to pregnant women. The training of 33 doctors, nurses and midwives aims to improve the skills of the Somali health workforce responding to the escalating conflict in the city that is stretching an already weak health system.
