We strengthen the institutional capacity of Somali civil society and local government actors to lead, sustain, and scale impactful programming. Through a deliberate focus on systems, leadership, and learning, we build the foundations for long-term resilience and locally led governance. Capacity strengthening is both a standalone priority and a cross-cutting enabler of our broader triple nexus strategy.
We work with our member organizations and partners to enhance governance systems, financial management, HR structures, and strategic leadership capacity for long-term institutional growth.
Our in-house IDU coordinates tailored coaching, technical assistance, and organizational diagnostics for members—supporting each NGO’s customized development and compliance objectives.
We work with district and regional governments to improve service delivery, foster accountability, and promote participatory planning that reflects community needs and priorities.
We institutionalize learning across NEXUS through documentation, peer learning, and systems that embed evidence into planning, reporting, and adaptive program delivery.
