Other delegates from the country’s five regional states will be attending the forum which is slated for 16-17 of this month with attendance of donors and International partners.

On Thursday, Vice-President of EU, Federica Mogherini will co-chair the conference with Somali leaders and Ms Margot Wallström, Minister for Foreign Affairs of Sweden.
The event comes on the heel of EU’s €89 million (close to $105 million) meant for humanitarian assistance to Somalia,
“Our aid will target the most vulnerable and provide life-saving support to those affected by climatic shocks and internal conflict,” Stylianides said.
The Commission noted that the EU has drastically scaled up its humanitarian assistance to Somalia — allocating €119 million (some $135 million) to the country last year alone.
