The Ministry of Youth and Sports (MOYS) of Somalia needed a dynamic online dashboard to consolidate, visualize, and analyze data on youth programs, beneficiaries, and budgets. Zifala worked with MOYS to design and deliver a centralized, user-friendly Power BI dashboard, enabling transparent reporting on youth-related activities and investments across Somalia’s regions.

The Chalange
MOYS lacked a central system to consolidate scattered project data, which created difficulties in tracking active projects, beneficiaries by age and gender, and regional investments. Reporting relied on manual data collation from various implementing partners, making timely decision-making and donor reporting slow and prone to inconsistencies.
What Zifala Did
Zifala collaborated closely with MOYS teams and partners to understand data flows and reporting needs. We designed a highly visual, easy-to-navigate Power BI dashboard that integrates data from multiple partners and programs into a single interface. The dashboard tracks ongoing youth projects, regional coverage, budget allocations, and demographic breakdowns by gender and age (male, female, adolescent). Custom filters and interactive visuals allow users to quickly drill down into specific regions, projects, or demographics. The dashboard also supports data exports for reporting and advocacy use. Zifala provided technical setup, data cleaning, Power BI licensing support, and trained MOYS staff on dashboard management and updates.

The Results
- Delivered Somalia’s first Youth Cluster interactive dashboard
- Enabled real-time tracking of projects, regions, and budgets
- Improved donor reporting and visibility of youth investments
- Empowered MOYS teams with data-driven planning tools
- Reduced reporting time from weeks to hours
