Somali Teachers' Day is a moment to honor the resilience and dedication of our educators. Yet, they face immense challenges: low pay, scarce resources, and poorly equipped libraries—or none at all. May ALLAH ease their burdens. #SomaliTeachersDay #LibrariesMatter

“Where is Our National Library?” Since 1991, Somalia has lacked a functioning National Library. A nation without a library is a nation without memory. It’s time to reclaim our right to knowledge. #ReviveOurLibrary #SomaliaReads #NLoS

👏We proudly acknowledge the dedicated role of our Founder & President, Mohamud Mohamed siad in coordinating the donation of 2,821 books to Galkacyo Public Library under Galmudug’s Ministry of Education. 📚 Leadership in action. Libraries across Somalia deserve the same.

Too often, Somali officials return from abroad saying: “Fruitful meeting.” “Side talk with delegates.” “Progress made.” But no clear outcomes. No shared lessons Meanwhile, shorturl.at/BkqLb📷 Dr. Mahathir’s post on Japan visit Real leadership learns, shares, and inspires.

We welcome the FG of #Somalia’s principled stance to reassess the C6+ framework. This marks a firm step toward reinforcing national sovereignty, mutual respect, and genuine partnerships based on shared goals and realities on the ground. 🇸🇴 #SomaliaSovereignty #Partnership

Somali Library Association welcomes the laying of the foundation stone for new schools under the #SEHCDP Project. We urge that each school includes a well-equipped library to enrich learning beyond classrooms. Quality education shapes minds, not just lessons. #Somalia #Education #Library

we advocate for library inclusion in school construction. Libraries enhance education, support teacher training, and promote girls' education. The national library can provide essential resources for this initiative. #Education #GirlsEducation #Library Global Education Monitoring Report UNESCO Farah Sheikh Abdulkadir
