The United Nations Development Programme and the Hormuud Salaam Foundation have launched an 18-month initiative to tackle youth unemployment and expand opportunities in Somalia’s green and blue economy. The program will support 2,000 young people and 360 SMEs through training, business incubation, access to finance and digital job-matching tools. Officials said the partnership aligns with Somalia’s national development goals and strengthens local capacity for renewable energy, fisheries, aquaculture and digital enterprise growth.
