Somalia

You are here: Home / Countries CD4D2 / Somalia

Context

Decades of political, social, and economic challenges in the Federal Republic of Somalia have led to critical capacity limitations. National education and knowledge systems have collapsed, aggravated by a massive brain drain. Somalia is now on the path to emerge from fragility. A key milestone is the New Deal Somalia Compact, which provides a new political, security and development framework. The Compact presents specific priorities framed by five Peacebuilding and State building Goals. These are: 1. Legitimate Politics, 2. Security, 3. Justice, 4. Economic foundations, 5. Revenues and Services.

Past Achievements

Somalia was included in the initial CD4D phase. Since 2016, 87 assignments have taken place. These assignments took place in South Central Somalia, Somaliland, and Puntland. Capacity was built in priority sectors, including education, infrastructure, governance and agriculture. There proved to be a substantial qualified diaspora community with a Somali background in the Netherlands, consisting of mainly young professionals, who are willing to contribute to the reconstruction and development of the country through short assignments in Somalia.
