The study utilized snowball and purposive sampling to select a target population size of (50). The study utilized frequencies and percentages; tables were used in the presentation of data. In addition to that, data collection was analyzed using themes and explanations while comparing the findings with the literature review part of the study. The researcher found that, women did not get major consideration in political participation in Somalia whether federal, state level as well as in local councils. 62% of the respondents stated that the availability of economic resources is a major determinant in the participation of women in politics. While 87 % of the respondents stated that the federal level is the most challenged one to compare two other levels of state and local councils, because the financial requirement on federal level is more than the two other levels. Even though women have common challenges towards financial burden women candidates at federal are not supported by their clans and other political leaders unlike their male counterparts who receive financial backing to run their campaigning. The study also found the existence of persistent patriarchy with 95% of respondents believing that traditional leaders are influencing in women"s political life generally and particularly in avoiding women"s participation at all levels three of elections or nominations positions simply due to the commonly held perception that woman cannot represent the clan. The study also found a strong correlation between education and women's participation in local councils. The researcher recommends that the society or community should be encouraged to change their negative attitudes on Women"s political participation. Thus, we should engage more women in political positions. Men need to realize women"s needs for political power and change the way they look at women and the government should embark on activities which support women"s political Initiatives. https://sorer.somaliren.org.so/record/146 10.20374/sorer/146 eng info:eu-repo/semantics/altIdentifier/gnd/gnd:2308-1365 ISSN doi:10.20374/sorer/145 url:https://sorer.somaliren.org.so/communities/psu url:https://sorer.somaliren.org.so/communities/sorer info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess http://www.opendefinition.org/licenses/cc-by International Journal of Contemporary Applied Researches Vol. 6(No. 5, May 2019) WOMEN PARTICIPATION Women in Politics Somali Women Somali Politics Somalia factors influencing women's participation in politics FACTORS INFLUENCING WOMEN PARTICIPATION IN POLITICS AT FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL ELECTIONS IN PUNTLAND STATE OF SOMALIA info:eu-repo/semantics/article publication-article

MOHAMED AHMED MOHAMED (BURTINLE) 2018-12-12 From its establishment, Puntland restored public institutions after the collapse of the central state in 1991 and civil servants were recruited to delivery public services. However, the civil servants were not recruited based on formal procedures rather based on clan quotas and recommendations by the key traditional elders and other informal powerholders. Most of the civil servants earned low wages and worked with very meagre budgets. These conditions affected service delivery and the performance of the civil servants. Recognizing challenges, the World Bank partnered with the government and launched Puntland Civil Service Reform Strategy (2015-2017). The Strategy is expected to bring tangible changes in the structure and functions of the government. Recruitment of civil servants based on merit is one of the ambitious objectives of this reform strategy. However, the main challenge could be deeply embedded clan quotas. It is agaist this backdrop that this study aims to establish the challenges and opportunities of Puntland civil service sector reform. https://sorer.somaliren.org.so/record/138 10.20374/sorer/138 info:eu-repo/semantics/altIdentifier/gnd/gnd:2308-1365 ISSN doi:10.20374/sorer/137 url:https://sorer.somaliren.org.so/communities/psu url:https://sorer.somaliren.org.so/communities/sorer info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess http://www.opendefinition.org/licenses/cc-by International Journal of Contemporary Applied Researches Vol. 5, No. 12,(Vol. 5, No. 12, December 2018) Civil Service Reform Reform Puntland State University Good Governance CSR Challenges and Opportunities PUNTLAND CIVIL SERVANT REFORM: CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES info:eu-repo/semantics/article publication-article
