Somalia is in turmoil. Many necessary steps are needed to achieve peace here. To achieve peace, we should learn lessons from the actions taken in the past. To achieve peace, it is necessary to deal with the challenges of armed conflict and political stability there. The mistakes made in the past to establish peace mustn’t be repeated.
To establish peace in Somalia, it is necessary to unite its people first and remove negative thoughts from the hearts and minds of the Somali leadership. This will strengthen the institutions, create a bond of love between the people and the forces, and end the armed conflict.
Here are some more points on how to make peace in Somalia possible:
Lessons from Past Peacebuilding Efforts
As in the rest of the countries, efforts are being made to bring peace. Similarly, every possible effort is being made to bring peace to Somalia. Various strategies have been adopted for this. One of these efforts was the Arta conference of 2008, which emphasized the political divide, but the 2012 transition suffered a lot due to the discouragement and lack of courage of all participants.
However, according to the opinion of some people, there is still a need for local ownership and some comprehensive processes that could be implemented and a sustainable framework. If the local ownership revises the previous problems, then these problems can be solved in the future. A better strategy can be used for this, and many problems can be overcome
The Role of Local Communities in Sustaining Peace
Local communities have an important role to play in peacebuilding, which can play an important role in peacebuilding through grassroots dialogue and mutual consultation. These conflicts can be resolved through a variety of mechanisms by empowering local leaders and communities to revisit peacebuilding issues and suggest different ways of resolving them through mutual consultation.
Apart from this, the responsibility can be imposed on the tribal councilors because if we take steps to establish peace even on a small scale, this global problem can be largely solved. Peacebuilding is not only top-down, but it has become very intense in Somali society. In the solution, local ownership can play an excellent role by imposing responsibility even at a small level.
Strengthening Governance and Security for Long-Term Stability
Various measures can be taken to prevent extremism and violence in Somalia. One of the solutions is to elect some strong and accountable institutions and hold them accountable for their actions and for preventing violence. Apart from this, violence can also be prevented by increasing the security forces and using many terms in it.
If the law is made transparent and its rule extended, it can also play an important role in curbing extremism and violence. Emphasis on economic development is crucial to making the Somali state peaceful and strong. The government should take the best measures against violence in conjunction with security and consultative responses to prevent it. In this way, the long-term stability of Somalia can be maintained.
Continued attention to these areas is critical to curbing extremism and violence, as the people of Somalia desire. Security forces, governance, and various communities can play an important role in implementing this. Future challenges can be addressed by revisiting past problems and incorporating significant reforms. Somalia can build a lasting peace comprehensively and locally for long-term stability. Which is the basic need of local people there.
