As an organization with a national outlook, HAPEN targets the wider Somalia covering the entire territory formerly known as the Somali Democratic Republic (SDR) even though its operations are currently limited to South and Central Regions. The communities in this zone were identified as one of the most affected by the civil war and adverse climate, which consequently dispossessed them of everything they had. HAPEN has operational offices in Kismayo, Badhadhe, Garbaharey, Afmadow, Baardhdere, Dollow, Ceel Barde and Luuq. A liaison office is maintained in Nairobi, Kenya. These offices coordinate the organization’s humanitarian activities taking place in the heart of Somalia
