Background:
Over the past 12 years, the Federal Government of Somalia (FGS) has focused on laying down the groundwork for state formation, reform & rebuilding the country. Much has been achieved. The government has developed legal frameworks, governance structures, public financial management processes, formalised Somalia’s presence in the international community, strengthened relations with neighbouring countries, restructured key institutions, established reconciliation forums for dialogue, developed the path for political reform & put in place the architecture for linking international support to our country priorities.
The country is in a historic & momentous period where there is progress on several fronts: The government has recovered more than 75 villages & districts from Alshabab in partnership with the local communities & some of the international partners. Eradicating extremism & deepening peace & stability are the main priorities for the government. The government, community leaders & Federal Member States (FMS) have shown commitment to liberate the country from Alshabaab a& work towards reconciliation, stabilisation & recovery, a progress that is moving fast & generating hope for the short time to come.
Somalia have recently graduated from the HIPC process, armed embargo lifted & succeeded to join the East Africa community, these achievements offer the opportunity to undergo a further transformative socio economic shift, this accompanied with the ongoing improvement in security & liberating new areas from Alshabaab the government & it is partners are required to deliver basic services for it is citizens so that needs are responded to but also to enhance the government legitimacy.
