Ethiopia’s infrastructure strategy has been transformative, centered on large-scale energy, transport and industrial development projects that support economic transformation. The Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam - Africa’s largest hydroelectric facility - exemplifies national efforts to expand energy access and build export capacity, while ambitious transport initiatives include expanding expressways and planning what is set to be Africa’s largest new airport. Free trade zones and enhanced logistics corridors aim to improve competitiveness and regional integration. Continued reforms to strengthen institutional capacity, attract investment, and extend services to rural areas are essential to sustaining inclusive growth.

Somaliland is a self-declared independent territory in the Horn of Africa that has operated with its own government and institutions since 1991, though it is not internationally recognised as a sovereign state. Its economy relies heavily on livestock exports, remittances from the diaspora and trade through the Port of Berbera. Its development initiatives have focused on expanding transport and port infrastructure, strengthening public financial management and improving energy and telecommunications services. International partnerships and private investment - particularly in logistics and corridor development linking Ethiopia to the coast - are supporting economic activity. However, limited international recognition restricts access to multilateral financing and development assistance, constraining the scale of infrastructure investment and institutional development.
