Nexus Consortium Somalia is a platform for change in response to the contemporary challenges to Somalia such as humanitarian crisis, geo-political challenges, the reactive approach to emergencies, to mention but a few.
The main goal of NEXUS Consortium is to transform the humanitarian, development, and peace ecosystem. The consortium, led by eight pioneering Somali NGOs, aspires to advance a locally driven agenda for change by building partnerships between communities, civil society, and the public and private sectors as well as through the implementation of integrated and sustainable interventions across the triple nexus of humanitarian, peace, and development.
NEXUS embodies the next evolutionary step of the Somali aid system, pioneering a locally led approach to delivering integrated peace building, humanitarian, and development interventions. By breaking the silos of humanitarian aid, development, and peace building and by creating
much- needed spaces for local organizations to lead the way in seeking, scaling, and integrating solutions across these sectors, Nexus proposes local leadership as more than a means of realizing localization commitments.
