Mogadishu, SONNA – The Commissioner of the Somali Disaster Management Agency (SoDMA), Mr. Mahmoud Macallin Abdulle, officially inaugurated a three-day working meeting aimed at fostering cooperation and collaboration between Somali early warning agencies and the East Africa Standby Force (EASF).

The primary focus of the meeting is to strengthen partnerships between Somali early warning agencies and the EASF, with discussions centered on developing effective working methods, sharing experiences, and leveraging modern techniques to mitigate disaster risks. The gathering also aims to address critical issues related to disaster preparedness and response, ensuring a coordinated and rapid reaction to emergencies in the region.

In his opening remarks, Commissioner Abdulle emphasized the importance of collaboration in enhancing disaster resilience. “This meeting marks a significant step towards building a robust framework for cooperation between Somali agencies and the East Africa Standby Force.
