Motherland Somalia “MLS” is a grassroots organization based in Jubaland state of Somalia, dedicated to working towards empowering the Somali youth in Kismayo and engages in activism to bring up localized solutions. Since the very first day of its inception back in 2015, through several measures such as vocational training, (1200 youths trained), connecting, coaching, counseling, and by several other measures. The organization has the expertise of relating with the youth and working towards their holistic empowerment with ample participation from all the stakeholders. The organization has the distinctive know-how of making youth participate in our programs and avail of all of our services.
The need for a holistic measure to work with those who are extremely marginalized and subjugated was always felt by the organization and counters the maligning status of the Somali youth in Kismayo; especially in severely underdeveloped IDPs and provide them with ample opportunities for mentorship, counseling to decide the course of their life.
