Congratulations to @Nagaad_Network for the official opening of the Women's Studio. I road-tested it myself😳. It's a great space for women to raise their voices, share ideas and shape their futures. Empowering women helps #Somaliland prosper. 🇬🇧 supports women leaders.

Nagaad Network held a legal review meeting in Hargeisa on women's quota in Somaliland, urging swift approval of laws to ensure fair representation. Stakeholders called for stronger policies and inclusion in election law 91/2023. #WomenInLeadership #Somaliland"

Half of Somaliland’s population—women—remain sidelined in politics. In the 2021 parliamentary elections, not a single woman was elected. The #DooroXildhibaanad campaign supports women aspirants for the 2026 elections and pushes to remove barriers to their leadership.

"Women in Somaliland have been vital to the peace process, yet challenges in political participation persist. The quota debate has lasted 24 years—it's time for change. Women are key to progress! Let's celebrate their achievements and push for representation." Dr. Edna Adan

"As a minister, I am ready to go wherever necessary and take every step to ensure that women in Somaliland take their rightful seats in the national Councils, regardless of party or clan affiliations." Minister of MolSAF, Ms. Milgo Mohamed Elmi (Sanbalooshe).

"We are also lobbying for the ratification of the Somaliland Women's Quota. Quotas are a mechanism that has solved the obstacles women face in political participation in many countries. We as Nagaad have prepared a booklet explaining the importance of quota" Nafisa, Nagaad ED

"The program we are launching today is called "Dooro Xildhibaanad" It is a Campaign in which we support women candidates who faced many challenges in previous elections." Nafisa Yusuf, Nagaad ED

On April 10, Nagaad Network, in collaboration with MOLSAF, launched the #DooroXildhibaanad Campaign to support women candidates in Somaliland's 2026 elections. Attendees included women aspirants, govt officials, CSOs, INGOs, and UN agencies. #EmpowerWomen #SomalilandElections

Yesterday in Hargeisa: Prominent Somaliland women led by @Nagaad_Network met with @GConway_UN , UN Deputy Special Representative of the Secretary-General, Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator. They fruitfully discussed women's rights and strengthening efforts to empower women.

On March 28, Nagaad held a digital security training for Women's Rights Activists with hearing disabilities under the #WeCannotWait project. Empowering them with online safety skills ensures inclusivity and protection for all. #DigitalSecurity #InclusionMatters

As President of Somaliland @Abdirahmanirro anticipates timely elections, Nagaad Network reaffirms its support for women's political participation. We're committed to backing women candidates for local councils and House of Representatives. Early preparation=key! #WomenPolitics

Welcomed @UNODC officials to Nagaad HQ in Hargeisa to discuss collaboration on women's issues and human rights. They also visited our center Women's situatin Room and GBV call center. Agreed on close cooperation to advance women's rights. #WomenEmpowerment #HumanRights #Nagaad

Together, we can put an end to harmful traditions FGM. Let’s raise awareness, support those affected, and empower voices advocating for change. It’s time to protect human rights and promote health and dignity for everyone. #EndFGM #HumanRights #BreakTheSilence #fgm #stopfgm

NAGAAD commends President Cirro for recognizing the need for women in leadership. We look forward to collaborating with the government to advance women's rights and empower women across Somaliland. #Somaliland #WomenInLeadership #GenderEquality #GoodGovernance

We are pleased that President Cirro has acknowledged the need for greater women's representation in government. His commitment to ensuring women's participation is a crucial step towards achieving sustainable development and good governance in JSL." #Somaliland #GenderEquality
