Migration for Development in Africa (MIDA)

The overall objective of the MIDA Somalia programme is to strengthen the capacity of state institutions through the recruitment of qualified diaspora professionals to contribute towards achieving the goals stipulated in the National Development Plan of Somalia aligned with the Global Compact on Migration and the 2030 Development Agenda.      

The programme supports the mobilization of resources and expertise of the Somali diaspora in order to contribute to the stabilization and development of Somalia, while ensuring that skills and knowledge are transferred to the host institution once the diaspora experts complete their assignments.
