Veterinaires Sans Frontières (VSF) is a prominent humanitarian organization dedicated to improving the livelihoods of communities in Somalia and East Africa through veterinary services and community development initiatives. Established in the early 2000s, VSF has focused on addressing the challenges faced by pastoralists and agro-pastoralists, particularly in the areas of food security, animal health, and sustainable livelihoods. The organization operates in various regions, providing essential support to vulnerable populations affected by conflict and climate change.
