Join us for an inspiring Somali Scottish Network event centred on education, cultural identity, and mentoring within the community. This gathering brings together community members, educators, mentors, and change-makers to explore the experiences of Somali Scots and build stronger connections across generations.
Through engaging discussions, storytelling, and networking opportunities, we’ll highlight the importance of education, celebrate Somali heritage, and foster mentoring relationships that uplift and empower.
We are thrilled to welcome our keynote speakers:
✨ Mohamed Mohamud (Founder and Author of Somali Sideways)
✨ Dr Abdishakur Tarah (PhD) (Senior Lecturer and Researcher in Education)
Whether you're a student, professional, or community leader, this event offers a welcoming space to share, learn, and grow. Let’s come together to honour our roots, shape our futures, and strengthen our collective voice.
Topics include:
- Navigating education as a Somali Scot.
- Intergenerational conversations on identity and belonging.
- The power of mentorship in building community resilience.
While this event is focused on Somali professionals and students in Scotland, we warmly welcome everyone from ethnic minority communities, especially young professionals, educators, and mentors.
