From Aid to Enterprise: Rewiring U.S.–Somalia Relations Around Trade
This past week, I traveled to Houston, Texas, for the International Meeting for Applied Geoscience and Energy (IMAGE ’25) widely recognized as the premier global forum for geoscientists, energy professionals, and industry leaders. Here’s my honest reflections and takeaway from Houston: when the U.S. and Somalia sit across the table as partners in trade and investment, not merely as donor and…

15 Years of Blogging: A Personal Milestone Celebration
2003: First Internet Use Experience It’s 10:00 am in May 2003 (I don’t remember the month), a typical very hot day in Mogadishu. We just came back from swimming in Geel Laq, a very popular beach in Mogadishu back in the day. Swimming was a typical childhood experience in Mogadishu! On our way back home, while passing Marwaas Mosque in Hamar Weyne, we came across a crowded space and out of…

Ten Days in America
Ten Days in America
Hitting the Ground
First of all, let me say it now: traveling with the blue Somali passport is one of the serious hurdles Somalis face when traveling abroad. But I still do believe our passport won’t receive back its power rank unless the best of us, who go and return to the country, use it. I know it’s difficult and may even cost us important events for our professional career, but it is…

Two Things Stand Out In APU Orientation Week
Two Things Stand Out In APU Orientation Week
Finally, I’ll live for the next two years in a place where I used to see/watch it only on YouTube, the beautiful and green campus of Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University (APU). Now, we’re in the middle of the orientation week for the new students (including me and six of my friends). I was surprised with two things. The first came when they invited “real” policemen to the stage to brief us about…

FURSAD FUND – Is Politicophabia Hindering the Potential Development of Somalia?
FURSAD FUND – Is Politicophabia Hindering the Potential Development of Somalia?
In my country, according to UN reports, 67%% of our youth are unemployed – but I’m luckier enough to be one of the few who are employed. Yet, unemployment is only one of many global economic indicators that Somalia is leading from the bottom. Sorry, my country! For the last 2 decades, our country heavily depended on foreign aid. But fast forward 25 years, we are starting to dream and we want to…

FROM PASSION TO CAREER: WEB 2.0 & SOCIAL MEDIA
This narrative article reflects a personal milestone. Why? Because I’m chosen to become the lead trainer of a web 2.0 & social media workshop facilitated by Somalis for the first time. And it’s worth mentioning that I was one of the beneficiaries of this same training when it first came in Somalia in 2014, but at that time, Training Center in Communication (TCC) from Nairobi, Kenya was assisting…

How to Learn More by Studying Less?
How to Learn More by Studying Less?
“Being intelligent within … (a) subject is often a factor (of) just how much exposure you have had to it.” – Scott Young, a “Marco Polo” of Learning. To learn more in less time, it only depends on motivating yourself. But, in the 1st place, Why do we fail to motivate ourselves? This is because majority of learners use low-efficient study methods when they want to learn more; and this takes more of…
