This framework includes relative categories and sub-categories of civil society activities,
interests and influences, both real and potential in the case of Somaliland. Many of these were
not addressed by Somalilanders in interviews or workshops due to lack of time, knowledge, or
perceived prioritization on the part of Somalilander participants, but may nonetheless be helpful
to identify possible next steps, priorities, and overlap with donor interests.
The top level boxes in light blue identify major categories of civil society influences and
internal and external roles and responsibilities. The lower level boxes in yellow identify sub-
categories of civil society influences (such as advocacy) and roles and responsibilities related to
each of the major categories. These are general headings and as such comprise a number of
different civil society influences and activities.
Civil society priorities discussed in the following section are organized by these categories and
subcategories. Some subcategories are not discussed; those that are not discussed were not
mentioned either at all or to a significant degree by workshop participants or interviewees.
