Enabling Popular Participation in Transitional Justice in Somalia
Somali Public Agenda
January 26, 2025

Given Somalia’s increasing stability, transitional justice has become an option for addressing the violence and gross human rights violations that have marked the country’s history from the colonial period to the present. Experiences in other African countries over the past three decades show that transitional justice processes are more likely to be effective if they are rooted in popular participation, particularly of victims/survivors and communities affected by violence.
This study explores emerging measures linked to transitional justice in Somalia, which are rooted in local practices and build on local resources, to provide recommendations to state authorities, civil society, and multilateral actors, including the African Union, for enabling popular participation and thereby a more contextual, inclusive, and effective transitional justice process in Somalia.
