Galkayo & Bosaso — August 2023 — UNIDO launched two new Enterprise Development Units (EDUs) in Galmudug and Puntland, as part of the expansion of its Productive Sectors Development Programme (PSDP) project.

The two EDUs are in the cities of Galkayo and Bosaso — in the Federal Member States of Galmudug and Puntland, respectively — and have already begun their first ‘Training of Entrepreneurs’ (ToE) sessions to train and support local, aspiring businesspeople.

In Galkayo, the EDU had 20 participants, including youth and women, in its ToE session in August. In Bosaso, some 25 people are taking part, with the ToE there due to end in early September.
