Somalia finally joins the Africa free trade agreement theeastafrican.co.ke/tea/new…
Somalia's education system was long affected by the war and hence in a bid to bring reforms, it is needful that the existing curriculum addresses extremism, historical narratives, and contemporary challenges.
Equally, scholars and educators in Somalia report an urgent need for National Curriculum reform to rectify the biases that have been perpetuated through generations and shape the future of Somali learners.
This article delves into the historical context of the “Revolutionary Somalia” era (1969-1990) and contemporary challenges to provide a ground for reforming the Somalia National Curriculum.

He saved nearly 20 children. The @ABC headline says “Minnesota man.” Which he is.
Had he done something wrong, the headline would have found a way to mention that he is Somali, and we would be told he is probably @Ilhan Omar’s cousin. The hypocrisy.
A Minnesota man saved nearly 20 children when their school bus driver suffered a medical emergency.

Except that Somaliland region is not a country.
Who knew the Abraham Accords had become so hopeless that they now court regions within sovereign African states?
Which country will join Abraham Accords before 2027? Interesting that Polymarket has Somaliland, at 14%, as the highest likelihood in the region. I was just caution them to discuss with Sudan how it turned out for them... polymarket.com/event/which-c…

Fawzi Warsame, a brilliant Norwegian lawyer born in Oslo to Somali parents, has been officially elected the new leader of Norway’s Workers’ Youth League (AUF).
