It is one of the eight districts in the region. Galgadud is the nationally recognised region with its headquarters in Dhusa-Mareb. The city of Abudwak is believed to be the largest commercial city in the whole of Galgadud region. It shares a borderline with the Somali region of Ethiopia. According to the locals, the population of the district is roughly around 220,000 including surrounding villages but UNDP puts the population number around 41,500. Most of these people are pastoralists herding camels, cattle and goats. Abudwak and surrounding area is red sandy with semi desert look. Further into the grazing lands near the border with Ethiopia's Somali Province, one finds forest and mountains where mostly camels are herded. The city's population has increased due to influx of people that fled from the fighting in Mugadishu. In the recent years, food security situation in Abudwak and the entire Galgadud region have been deteriorating. According to FSAU, the region shifted from Generally Food Insecure (GFI) to Acute Food and Livelihood Crisis (AFLC). In its 2007/08 post deyr analysis, FSAU indicated that over 20,000 people in Galgadud region were in terrible Humanitarian Emergency.

The Compact which endeavours to commit to the Somali Amir Baker People reflects the ongoing process of transition and defines priority interventions to keep Somalia on the path to long-term peace, stability and state building. The New Deal is expected to revitalize and expand the Somali economy with a focus on livelihood enhancement, employment generation, and broad-based inclusive growth. The New Deal Conference welcomed the government’s draft Economic Recovery Plan (ERP) as a basis for prioritizing flagship projects for social and economic development. Proposals have been made to discuss the Somali compact particularly “PSG 4: Economic Foundations” to see where PREP and its three projects can contribute to the Compact and decide on the way forward.
