We are pleased to attend the launch of the National Academy of Maay Culture and Sciences. This important initiative will contribute to the development of Maay culture, the promotion of peace, and the advancement of education through both learning and research.
The Week of Peace, organized by SWS in Baidoa, is a vital initiative that brought the community together through sports, culture, and dialogue. These events are crucial for fostering unity, strengthening social cohesion, and paving the way for a more harmonious future for all res
Somalia and Denmark are strengthening their partnership to advance climate finance priorities, reinforcing Somaliaโs strategic position in the UN Security Council. This collaboration highlights a shared commitment to tackling climate challenges through global cooperation.
Through this partnership, $40M in Danish climate support via the World Bank will be fast-tracked: $20M for the Barwaqo Project, $4M for MoECC capacity, and $16M to be allocated after the World Bank Climate Change and Development Report (CCDR).
MoECC will enhance donor coordination to align climate funding with national priorities. A follow-up meeting with line ministries and donors, organized through the Embassy of Somalia, will take place in April/May to advance these efforts.

Exciting news! The South West State of #Somalia has taken a bold step by banning single-use plastic bags starting January 2025. This is a crucial move towards protecting our environment and combating plastic pollution.
