While UN-Habitat (United Nations Human Settlements Programme) and its website are understandably busy preparing for the upcoming World Urban Forum #WUF, it is wonderful to see the Bosaso City Strategy now published on ReliefWeb. 📜✨ This comprehensive report is the outcome of a year-long effort that UN-Habitat Somalia Programme undertook with the Municipality of Bosaso, the State of Puntland and the Federal Goverment of Bosaso, with the support of IOM - UN Migration and UNDP Somalia under the Saameynta (“Impact” in Somali) Programme. It outlines a clear roadmap for the sustainable and inclusive growth of Bosaso, the booming economic hub of Puntland, Somalia. This strategy prioritizes #resilience, #livelihood enhancement, improved #infrastructure, and equitable #servicedelivery. It focuses on creating a secure environment where all residents, including #IDPs and displacement affected communities, can prosper, addressing key urban challenges through collaborative efforts and innovative solutions. Heartfelt gratitude to the Municipality of Bosaso, the State of Puntland, and the Federal Government of Somalia for their leadership and collaboration in shaping this strategy. Special thanks to our generous donors Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation, the Government of the Netherlands and the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs for their continued support in making these efforts possible! 🤝💡 Link to Report in the first comment Sophos Sophianos Ishaku Maitumbi Sebastian May Grace Nyonyintono Lubaale, PhD Abdirahman Barkhadle Mohamoud Xasan Osman M.
