Path to Peace (Episode 404): Somalia's Path to Human Development

Tubta Nabaada "Path to Peace"

[This show is produced in Somali only; English caption of the show context is down below] This week on #TubtaNabadda, we discuss Somalia's recent inclusion in the Human Development Report (HDR) for the first time in 30 years. Produced by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the HDR is an annual human development index. First done in 1990, the Human Development Report introduced a new approach for advancing human wellbeing. Human development – or the human development approach - is about expanding the richness of human life, rather than simply the richness of the economy in which human beings live. It is an approach that is focused on people and their opportunities and choices. Somalia’s inclusion represents an opportunity for Somalia to forge a path toward a more sustainable and prosperous future. In the first segment, we hear from Saifeldin Daoud Abdelrhman, an economist from UNDP Somalia. He discusses why this inclusion is a milestone for Somalia, the role of the Human Capital Development Coordination Forum in Mogadishu and how this forum can guide the UN's initiatives in support of the betterment of Somali people. In the second segment, we hear from Mohamed Abdinur, a statistician and deputy director-general of Somali National Bureau of Statistics. He talks about what it means for Somalia to appear in the report and the efforts that are ongoing by the Somali government to promote human capital development through investment in a range of sectors such as healthcare, education and employment. The program is presented by Abdiaziz Dirie and Faiza Abdi Warsame.
