CARDIFF: Somaliland Community Meeting with Head of British Office in Hargeisa

Description

The Somaliland UK Mission and Wales Somaliland Community are hosting event with Head of the British Office in Hargeisa, Stuart Brown, and Angus Miller, Department for International Development (DFID). The British Office in Hargeisa has been ramping up its work in Somaliland in collaboration with the Mission, the Somaliland Government as well as the British-Somalilanders both in the UK and in Somaliland. With Cardiff having a sizeable and well-established Somaliland community we found it poignant to host a conversation with Stuart Brown, Head of the British Office in Hargeisa. The event will provide for an opportunity for the community to discuss issues pertinent to them with the Head of the British Office.

The Somaliland diaspora business community plays a major role in the economic growth in Somaliland. However, there is still a long way to go and the Somaliland diaspora business community has the opportunity to shape these transformational developments. With the Berbera Corridor project currently underway, there are immense opportunities for Somaliland’s business community to shape and contribute to its development. As such, we will be having a discussion with Angus Miller- DFID’s, on how Somaliland businesses can benefit from the corridor project as well as how they can contribute to it.
