What is EU long term development strategy in Horn of Africa?

Over the past decade, the EU has been progressively setting up a comprehensive approach to Somalia, including long-term development interventions aimed at creating security, building peace, and improving democratic governance in the country. To date, the EU is the biggest donor to Somalia. From its main financial instrument fro Africa, Caribbean and Pacific, European Development Fund (EDF), the EU has committed €215.4 million for the period 2008 to 2013. Development aid in the country focusses on governance, education, economic growth, and support to food security, health, environment, water and sanitation. This amount will be increased by €175 million in the coming days.
