The Somali Researchers Association (SRA) and Act for Performance were the implementing partners for the Evaluation of the Somalia UN Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework 2021–2025. This is the main agreement that guides how the UN system works with the Government of Somalia. The report was submitted to UNICEF Somalia and the RCO Somalia in May 2025 and has been published in print.
