In addition, it supports over 300 projects throughout Somalia, including rehabilitating existing wells and drilling new ones, recovering agricultural land and improving the production capacities of those who cultivate it. The ICRC also runs a large programme for the re-establishment of family links in order to help people who have lost contact with their loved ones.
