Sewing a future through education<br />
Seventeen-year-old Osob Abdullahi Mohamed<br />
carefully inserts thread in a sewing machine needle,<br />
spreads two lengths of fabric in position and quickly<br />
kicks the machine into motion, stitching the pieces<br />
together.<br />
“It’s a lady’s blouse,” says Osob, whose family was<br />
forced to flee due to conflict and now lives in a<br />
camp for displaced people in Dollow town, south<br />
Somalia. “It is exciting to do this, I feel lucky to have<br />
been chosen for this course. I’m hoping to start my<br />
own business, once I complete the training.”<br />
