Eid Mohamed Muhumed

I am an agricultural development and geospatial specialist with 14 years of experience leading climate-smart initiatives and spatial data modeling in Somaliland. As Head of GIS and Database Officer at the Ministry of Agricultural Development, I direct the spatial analysis that guides national land-use planning and agricultural policies. My work integrates technical field research with ministerial coordination to strengthen seed systems and regional food security. I am now looking to apply my expertise in sustainable land administration and environmental resilience to high-impact international development projects.
