Al Jazeera's Mohammed Adow reports from a refugee camp in Djibouti on the UN sponsored talks aimed at starting a reconciliation process between Somalia's secular government and Islamist-led rivals.
In the next 24 hours, Somalia's transitional government will resume peace talks with the opposition in neighbouring Djibouti.
Many are praying the meeting will help resolve one of Africa's most entrenched conflicts - but previous talks earlier this month yielded almost nothing.
Thousands of Somalis have died and even more have left their homes, amid fierce battles between Islamist fighters and government troops, backed by Ethiopia.
