It was a great pleasure for the International Relief Foundation (IRF) to participate in the two-day conference at the Global Somali Diaspora (GSD) on 16–17 December in London, UK. Our presence and contribution underscored the crucial role of IRF in advocating for the rights of Somali minority communities.
The conference focused on the critical nexus between peacebuilding and economic development within the Somali diaspora context, exploring how these two aspects can mutually reinforce each other for the advancement of both the diaspora community and Somalia as a whole.
