How UPF Africa promotes peace in Somalia

Nation presentation

Situated in the Horn of Africa, Somalia spans approximately 637,657 square kilometers and boasts a diverse population with Somali as the official language. Historically recognized for its strategic location and nomadic pastoralist lifestyle, Somalia has faced challenges in recent decades, including conflict and political instability, impacting its economic landscape. In a vision for recovery and resilience, the nation is actively rebuilding key sectors such as agriculture, livestock, and fisheries, while also focusing on harnessing renewable energy sources and attracting investments in infrastructure development. Somalia's commitment to stability involves addressing historical challenges and fostering innovation across various sectors. Despite the hurdles, Somalia is determined to navigate a path of sustainable development, inclusive growth, and the preservation of its unique cultural heritage, aiming to build a prosperous future for its people and contribute to regional stability.
