Somalia
Somalia’s infrastructure base remains limited following decades of conflict, with major gaps in electricity, transport and water systems. Recent efforts focus on rebuilding basic infrastructure, improving port and airport facilities, and restoring institutional capacity with support from international partners. Continued progress in governance reform, debt restructuring and private sector engagement is essential to translating reconstruction investment into sustainable economic recovery and broader development gains.
