Somali Capacity
In 2011 the UNDP was able to reopen the United Nations Common Compound in Mogadishu, a sign of the improving security situation. The UNDP is working across many sectors to help Somalia re-build effective state institutions. Working alongside regional and international actors, UNDP focuses on building and implementing shared solutions to the issues of democratic governance, the rule of law, and security, poverty reduction and environmental protections, achieving the Millennium Development Goals, gender equality/women’s empowerment, and HIV/AIDS.
