Nexus Consortium Somalia

A Somali-Led PlatformRedefining Aid

Nexus is a consortium of eight Somali NGOs—CPD, GREDO, HAVOYOCO, KAALO, SSWC, SADO, TASCO, and WASDA—and two international partners, Oxfam and Save the Children. Together, these organizations bring over 30 years of collective experience in Somalia and Somaliland, focusing on areas like Protection, Development, Peacebuilding, Health, Women, poverty reduction, Agriculture, Empowerment, Livelihoods, WaSH, and Climate Change.Founded on the principles of equality, accountability, and community ownership, we work to transform the aid system from the ground up. Our consortium spans every region of Somalia and Somaliland, building bridges between local actors, government, and global partners to deliver integrated, context-driven solutions that put Somali voices at the center of action.

Our Strategy for Locally Led Transformation

We deliver locally led programs that blend humanitarian aid, development, and peacebuilding—empowering communities to lead responses and build long-term resilience.

We champion aid localization by elevating Somali voices, shaping policy, producing evidence, and advancing inclusive, community-rooted change at every level.

We invest in the growth of Somali civil society, local governments, and grassroots groups—enhancing institutional systems, leadership, and knowledge-sharing capacity.

Driven by Somali Expertise, United in Purpose

Our strength lies in the collective experience of eight pioneering local Somali NGOs, and two International NGOs, working across every region of Somalia and Somaliland. Each member brings deep-rooted community presence, decades of programmatic expertise, and a shared commitment to locally led transformation. Together, we form a platform that delivers integrated responses and shapes the future of aid from the ground up.

Where We Work

We work across all 18 regions of Somalia and Somaliland, reaching communities in urban centers, rural areas, and crisis-affected zones. With member organizations embedded in local contexts, we are uniquely positioned to understand regional dynamics, respond quickly to emerging needs, and implement programs that reflect the realities of the people we serve. Our collective footprint ensures that no community is too remote to be heard, supported, and empowered.
