Making Mogadishu Safe [PDF ebook] 
Localisation, Policing and Sustainable Security

Support

This Whitehall Paper explores the ways in which Mogadishu’s inhabitants try to stay out of harm’s way, from security officials in the presidential compound of Villa Somalia to the city’s powerful district commissioners, from patrolling policemen to the women road-sweepers in the rubbish-filled alleyways of the Waberi district. Its central proposition is that security is best understood as a coherent relationship or activity based on the need for physical safety today, rather than in the future. It uses the neighbourhood-watch schemes developed in certain districts of Mogadishu – most notably Waberi – to understand the ways in which the city’s inhabitants respond to the security models promoted by international advisers.
