Somalia: Scholars Express Hope London Conference

Some of the Somali scholars in abroad expressed hope the upcoming London conference which scheduled 23rd of this month to discuss measures to tackle instability in Somalia and piracy. Mohamed Muse Guled, one of Somali Diaspora and educated figures has greatly welcomed Britain hosting London conference on Somali crises, saying that it will help way out of the long running Somalia conflict. When asked what London conference is different from the previous held ones for Somalia, he said this is an international gathering with many leaders around the world who turned their attention to the current situation of Somalia.

This move comes in advance of a London conference organized by the UK government which will bring together key international actors to discuss new approaches to Somalia and meaningful participation of Somali stakeholders, promoting local stability, and making sure there is downward accountability of donors, international organizations and the Somali government to the Somali people.
