Is Somalia on the brink of collapse? For decades the fragile nation has been plagued with problems on multiple fronts - from conflict with al-Shabab to climate change to food and water crises - and has been caught in what seems to be an endless cycle of devastation.

Current President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud, who was also Somalia’s president from 2012 to 2017, has said he is committed to rebuilding the nation.
