The event brought together President Irro and his delegation with representatives of the U.S.-based conservation organization to exchange views on sustainable development and the preservation of natural resources.

Discussions also explored potential areas of cooperation between Somaliland and American institutions involved in environmental and conservation initiatives.

During the gathering, Irro thanked ICCF for hosting the luncheon and for welcoming his delegation.

He emphasized the importance of protecting natural resources and promoting sustainable economic development, describing both as essential to Somaliland’s long-term prosperity and environmental resilience.

Participants discussed ways to strengthen cooperation in the conservation of natural resources, wildlife, and marine ecosystems, while also examining how environmental protection can support economic growth and community development.

The International Conservation Caucus Foundation, headquartered in Washington, D.C., works with policymakers, conservation groups, and international partners to promote environmental protection, wildlife conservation, sustainable resource management, and ocean preservation around the world.

Irro highlighted the need for responsible stewardship of natural resources, arguing that effective management can help create economic opportunities while preserving the environment for future generations.

The luncheon formed part of a broader series of meetings and engagements that Irro and his delegation have been conducting during their visit to the United States.

The trip has included discussions with lawmakers, policy institutions, and organizations aimed at expanding Somaliland’s international partnerships and areas of cooperation.

No formal agreement, funding package, or new conservation initiative was announced following the meeting.

Instead, the discussions focused on dialogue, exchanging perspectives, and identifying possible avenues for future collaboration in environmental conservation and sustainable development.
