Peace and Development Party
The Peace and Development Party is a political party in Somalia. It was established in April 2011 by Hassan Sheikh Mohamud, the former President of Somalia. PDP members unanimously elected him as the party's Chairman in April 2011, with a mandate to serve as leader for the next three years. The party's leadership also has ties with Al-Islah, Somalia's branch of the Muslim Brotherhood.
In October 2019 the PDP joined the Forum for National Parties an alliance of Somali political parties which have agreed to work together to resolve Somalia's political and security issues.
