Somalia

Somalia is a country in the Horn of Africa, bordered by Djibouti, Ethiopia, and Kenya, with the longest mainland coastline in Africa along the Gulf of Aden and the Indian Ocean. Its arid and semi-arid landscapes, extensive marine ecosystems, and strategic location at the junction of the Red Sea and the Indian Ocean make it an important location for research on marine biodiversity, climate change, oceanography, geology, water resources, public health, and sustainable development. Somalia’s diverse coastal and terrestrial environments provide valuable insights into the interactions between environmental change, natural resources, and human activities.
