Somalia

Adopted in September 2016, Somalia’s National Strategy and Action Plan on Preventing and Countering Violent Extremism have been consistently supported by the international community. During their initial development, a stakeholder analysis was conducted to identify key partners and constituencies from local communities and civil society who should be involved in their further development and implementation. Initial research was conducted to identify the main recurring conditions conducive to recruitment and radicalization leading to terrorism in the country. Relevant Federal Government partners were also identified.
