- description: 'Transition to Transformation: The Political Process in Somalia' is a 30" documentary charting the end of Somalia's Transitional Government and the establishment of a newly elected Parliament, President & Speaker. For the past two decades civil war, famine and radical insurgencies have left Somalia in ruins. Its transitional government held little to no power and was for many years exiled in neighboring Kenya. In June 2011 Somalia's political fate was decided at a crisis meeting in Kampala: in just over a year a new representative government was to be established, a draft constitution approved and a new President and Speaker elected. It seemed like an impossible task. In this film we explore Somalia's political journey during a remarkable year. A journey marked by violence, political in-fighting, tense negotiations and fraught diplomacy. This is Somalia's journey from transition to transformation. Featuring special interviews with... Dr Augustine Mahiga, UN Special Representative & Head of the UN Political Office for Somalia Abdiweli Mohamed Ali, Former Prime Minister of Somalia Abdi Hosh Jibril, Minister of Constitution & Reconciliation 2010-2012 Halima Ibrahim, Co-Chair Technical Selection Committee
