Christianity in Somaliland information


Christianity in Somaliland is a minority religion, estimated to have 7,642 followers according to the 2023 report by the Somali Bible Society.[1] This census did not count for the Christians in Somaliland who continue to practice their religion secretly or could not be contacted due to language barriers or fear of persecution.[1] The country's Christians are mostly native born.[2] The foreign Christian demographics include United Nations workers or other humanitarian agencies with bases in Hargeisa.[2] As of 2021, however, there are at least some known local Christians who feel persecuted.[3] The church and its institutions such as Caritas International also work in relief and charitable work, and also run programs such as rehabilitation of schools and hospitals, food aid, and assistance to poor children.[citation needed]
