Founding Member of Somaliland SDG16+ Coalition

CPA is a founding member of Somaliland’s SDG Coalition that was established to enhance collaboration among civil society groups, recognizing the importance of partnerships if the 2030 Agenda is to be successfully implemented. The Coalition is composed of the Horn of Africa – Center for Policy Analysis (CPA), the Somaliland Human Rights Center (HRC), the Network against FGM in Somaliland (NAFIS), Saferworld, the Somaliland Non-State Actors Forum (SONSAF), and the Somaliland National Youth Umbrella (SONYO). Coalition members coordinated consultations on SDG16+ with 55 civil society organisations across all six regions of Somaliland. This led to the identification of short-term and long-term priority SDG16+ targets and accompanying activities. These activities are intended to complement government, donor, international and national civil society initiatives, and are aligned, where possible, with the Somaliland National Development Plan II. Among other planned activities, the coalition will produce a report on SDG16+ porgress in Somaliland, which it will present in July 2019 at the United Nations High-Level Political Forum (HLPF) and at other international and regional events.
