Abstract

Purpose: The primary goal of this workbased  project  is creating an Hpd Operationalization Framework For Positive Interventions In Protracted Somali Environmental Conflicts: Considering Socio-Demographics, Familiarity, And Experience Factors"

Methodology: The use of convergent parallel mixed data design, data collection and analysis strategies implied that the researcher converged and merged both quantitative and qualitative data. The researcher collected both primary and secondary data roughly and simultaneously integrated and analyzed both online and offline data outputs so as to enable the findings reflect a work-based paper. A five-step thematic methodology was used to transcribe qualitative data from the non-structured probing questionaires admisntered to resoondents.  Secondary data  on familiarity and experience of HDP was collected from validated humanitarian websites. Qualitative data was analysed using a five-step analytical framework that encompassed  data familiarizing, generating initial codes, defining and collating interpretive codes for entire data framed into themes,  defining and naming final recurrent pieces.the sample size was 112 respodents drawn from  humanitarian stakeholders operating in Somalia.

Results:.Results showed gendered differences; 64.5% of males (40) and female participants (22)35.5% responded to the interviews implying that males dominated humanitarian operations. The mean age of respondents was 37.15 years, while the minimum and maximum ages were 24 and 61, respectively. Qualitative result summary results  showed that  barriers to HDP operationalization in somalia tabulated from the questionnaire were economic, political, finnacial, instution,programs ,technology. Success factors to the operationalization of HDP nexus were leadership and governance, transparency, feedback: participation: institutions, design, monitoring and evaluation, and technology.

Unique Contribution To Theory, Policy And Practice: The HDP  framework proposed  integrates coherent HDP interventions needed to tackle protracted environmental conflicts in Somalia.
