Background
and Objectives:
Somali Public Agenda
(SPA) is implementing an EU-funded project titled “Increased Opportunities for
Somali Citizens’ Scrutiny of Fiscal and Financial Governance.” This initiative
seeks to empower citizens by providing them with a platform to articulate their
views, priorities, and concerns to District Councils. The overarching goal is
to enhance citizen engagement in public financial management issues while equipping
both citizens and District Council members with the necessary knowledge
regarding Public Finance Management (PFM).
The project is designed
to promote transparency, accountability, and active participation in
governance, ensuring that the voices of Somali citizens, particularly in
marginalized areas, are heard in decision-making processes. Through this
project, citizens will gain access to relevant information about District
Council activities, challenges, and priorities, thereby fostering a more informed
community.
The project activities
will be implemented in three target districts across three Federal Member
States, including Hirshabelle, Galmudug, & Puntland. To ensure the success
of this initiative, SPA is seeking to recruit a knowledgeable and skilled
researcher based in Puntland who possess a strong understanding of the local
context.
