Background:

In an effort to improve coordination and enhance cooperation in the urban sector, the SUDP has been functioning as an umbrella programme, providing the managerial structure for additional projects complementing the initially planned activities. The Department for International Development (UK), the Governments of Japan and Italy, UNICEF, the World Food Programme, and UN-OCHA (through the Humanitarian Response Fund) are some of the institutions that benefited from the SUDP structure to implement interventions in the urban sector.

Through SUDP, UN-HABITAT has been able to be a key player in the UN Joint Needs Assessment resulting in the UN Joint Programme, currently under elaboration. SUDP also participated in the Post-tsunami Task Force, and has been the base for the elaboration of the Joint Programme for IDPs in Bossaso, Jowhar, and Baidoa, several Consolidated Appeal Processes, and additional project proposals and coordination and fund-raising activities. A quarterly newsletter has been produced, along with brochures and other materials on specific projects, to raise awareness in the donor community about the needs and achievements of the interventions in the urban centres of the Somali region.
