This grant, provided by the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Counterterrorism, aims to build critical counterterrorism investigation capacity in Somalia.

A core objective is to improve coordination on counterterrorism-related police investigations between these SPF units and the National Intelligence and Security Agency (NISA). Ultimately, this initiative seeks to boost information collection, analysis, and sharing among these Somali entities and with international partners, bolstering Somalia’s overall counterterrorism efforts.
