Path To Peace (Episode 412) UN Day: Somalia and the United Nations

This week on #TubtaNabadda we mark UN Day, which commemorates the birth of the world body in 1945. For this, we’ll be highlighting the United Nations’ role in supporting Somalia across a whole range of other areas. In the first segment, we hear from Abdulrahman Yusuf Al-adala, Somalia’s Deputy Minister for Information, Culture and Tourism. He shares insights on the partnership between the Somali government and the United Nations in addressing national priorities, including security, humanitarian and development needs. Mr. Al-Adala also highlights the significant progress Somalia has made through various UN initiatives. In the second segment, we hear from George Conway, who wears three hats in his work in Somalia: the UN Secretary-General’s Deputy Special Representative, UN Resident Coordinator and Humanitarian Coordinator for Somalia. He discusses key humanitarian and development initiatives currently underway and how the UN is adapting its strategies to meet the country's evolving needs. He also tells us about the importance of effective collaboration among local communities, the Somali government and the UN to better meet those needs. This episode is presented by Salah Osman and Faiza Abdi Warsame. ---- Tune in to your favourite radio stations on Friday: Radio Mogadishu (2.30 p.m., 8.30 p.m.) Radio Kulmiye (2.30 p.m., 8.30 p.m.) Radio Baidoa FM (1.30 p.m., 9.00 p.m.) SBC Radio - Tv (1.20 p.m., 7.30 p.m.) Radio Garowe (2.30 p.m., 8.30 p.m.) Radio Cadaado (1.30 p.m., 8.30 p.m.) Radio Risala (2.30 p.m., 9.00 p.m.) Risaala Media Corporation (2.30 p.m., 9.00 p.m.) Radio Dalsan (2.30 p.m., 8.30 p.m.) Hiiraan Weyn (1.15 p.m., 8.15 p.m.) Radio Galgaduud (2.30 p.m., 9.00 p.m.) Radio kismaayo Codka Jubaland (2.30 p.m., 7.00 p.m.) Waamo Radio (8.00 p.m.) Isnaay Radio (7.00 p.m.) Radio Jowhar (2.00 p.m., 8.30 p.m.) Codka Caasimadda (2.00 p.m, 7.30 p.m) Sanguuni Radio (8.00 p.m. Axad/Sunday) Beerlula Radio (8.30 p.m. Axad/Sunday) Arlaadi Radio (8.00 p.m. Axad/Sunday) Radio Daar-Dheer (8.30 p.m. Talaado/Tuesday) ---- Listen to the podcast of this and previous episodes of the show on: SoundCloud: unsom.info/P2PonSoundCloud iTunes: unsom.info/P2PoniTunes TuneIn: unsom.info/P2PonTuneIn ---- To know more about the activities and latest updates from the United Nations Assistance Mission in Somalia: Website: unsom.unmissions.org X: twitter.com/UNSomalia Facebook: www.facebook.com/UNSOMALIA Flickr: www.flickr.com/photos/unsom/
