Promotion of good governance for stabilization of Somalia.

CPD recognizes the need to encourage leadership based on ideas, vision, values and ethics. The expected results will be: improved leadership, capacity of society and influence in development processes in Somalia. Leadership is at the centre of rebuilding the country. Indeed, leadership is the foundation of every successful democracy.

CPD is championing quality of leadership and the need for such leadership to be based on values, broad and inclusive participation and ethics.

CPD works at emphasizing the inclusion of women and the youth to support its contribution in democratic development in the country. It thus – in addition to nurturing youth and women leadership – seeks to contribute to the process of implementing good governance for Somalia.

We are currently implementing key governance projects in Galmudug State’s Hobyo and Dhusamareeb districts. The project in Hobyo has seen local communities come together and reconcile ahead of the expected district council formation exercise. Previous projects implemented in Hobyo strengthened the district administration and opened up the ancient coastal city in Mudug region.
