Independent eyes on education projects across Somalia.

Third party monitoring of education projects for the Federal Government of Somalia: verifying, on the ground, that what is reported is what is real.

The challenge

Education investments in Somalia are delivered across regions where ministries and development partners cannot always travel. Reports arrive from implementers, but decision makers need independent confirmation: is the school there, is it built to standard, are the teachers teaching, are the learners learning?

Third party monitoring exists to answer those questions. It only works if the monitor can reach the sites, speak the languages, apply the protocols consistently and report without fear or favour.

What we do

  • Field verification visits to education project sites across Somalia
  • Geo tagged, time stamped evidence gathered against agreed monitoring protocols
  • Structured interviews with head teachers, communities and education officials
  • Independent verification of reported progress, works quality and service delivery
  • Clear, honest reporting that ministries and partners can act on

Why it matters

Every credible report protects the programme twice over. It gives funders the confidence to keep money flowing, and it gives the ministry early warning when something on the ground is drifting from the plan.

Our Mogadishu field office and Somali speaking teams let us reach sites that many firms cannot, and our monitoring protocols are built so that two different enumerators at the same school would file the same facts.

Independence is what you are. Credibility is what your evidence earns, visit by visit.Omariman monitoring team
