Somalia’s Deputy Minister of Planning, Investment, and Economic Development, Mohamed Abdulqadir Ali, attended the pivotal 2025 High-Level Committee Meeting of the Arab Planning Institute (API) in Kuwait, marking another engagement in the institute’s efforts to foster development across Arab countries.
The meeting, which drew representatives from various Arab nations, concluded with a series of significant decisions aimed at strengthening the API’s role in addressing the unique planning challenges faced by its member states. These resolutions are anticipated to significantly enhance the institute’s capacity to provide tailored solutions for economic planning and development.
Somalia’s participation in this meeting is part of a broader commitment to engage with regional partners to improve its national development agenda. By being actively involved in the API’s activities, Somalia signals its intent to harness the institute’s expertise for its own economic planning, aiming at sustainable growth and poverty reduction.
This involvement also underscores Somalia’s push towards regional integration and cooperation, which is crucial for tackling cross-border issues and sharing best practices in governance and economic development.
