The 6th Puntland Environment and Climate Change Conference in Garowe was a significant event, bringing together experts from the United Nations, local government, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and various stakeholders.

Over the two-day event, participants discussed critical topics such as biodiversity, climate resilience, and environmental justice—issues deeply relevant to Somalia, which is highly vulnerable to climate change impacts.

Somalia faces recurring droughts, floods, and desertification, which threaten livelihoods, food security, and infrastructure.

Conferences like this play a crucial role in fostering dialogue, promoting sustainable practices, and identifying actionable solutions to address these challenges.

By focusing on these pressing issues, Puntland demonstrates leadership in advancing regional and national strategies to combat climate change and protect its natural resources.

Such gatherings are essential steps toward building climate resilience and achieving sustainable development in Somalia.
