Who We Are ?

Locally Led Action is a locally rooted, community-led humanitarian and development organisation established in Somalia on 21 December 2022. We exist to advance a different way of doing humanitarian and development work—one that places local people, knowledge, leadership and decision-making at the centre of change.

Governance & Management

LADE is governed by a gender-balanced Board of Directors, which provides strategic oversight on organizational direction, risk management, and safeguarding. The Executive Director is responsible for day-to-day operations and is supported by a dedicated management team comprising sector leads in Programs, Finance & Operations, Monitoring, Evaluation, Accountability and Learning (MEAL), and Safeguarding/PSEA.

The governance and management structure is designed to uphold accountability, transparency, and effective service delivery. Field teams report through sector leads to ensure that programs are implemented in a coordinated, community-driven, and inclusive manner. This structure enables LADE to remain agile in emergency response while sustaining long-term development and resilience programming
