Institute of Peace, Water and Environment

The current state of the Somali environment is deplorable in terms of recurrent alternate droughts and floods with recurrence rate of about every 1 – 2 years.

The Institute’s objective is to mitigate the ever degrading Somali environment by identifying and proposing solutions for desertification and deforestation, among other problems. This objective can be realized through research, public education, and policy advocacy. Below are the goals of the Institute:

1. Conduct research and surveys to evaluate the extent of damage to the environment during and after the civil war;

2. Generate and propose sustainable approaches to ecosystems restoration for environmental resiliency leading to sustainable natural resources;

3. Develop and advocate for sustainable water and environmental protection concepts and policies;

4. Organize public seminars and workshops about sustainable use of water and environment;

5. Organize environmental action campaigns and information sharing platforms, and network with like-minded environmental organizations;

Mitigate environmental fragility resulting from climate change, with climate change adaptation and ecosystem restoration leading to a resilient environment and sustainable peace.

Achieve a sustainable peace anchored in resilient environment with well-managed natural resources.

Do no harm; environmental peace-building, peaceful sharing of natural resources, environmental protection and conservation, and environmental integrity and responsibility.
