Aisha’s story: From forced marriage to hope



 In Somalia, poverty, conflict, and displacement drive many families to marry off young daughters. Early and forced marriage has devastating consequences: physical harm, early pregnancies, psychological trauma, and lost education.

Somalia has committed to ending child marriage through international and regional treaties like the UNCRC, the ACRWC, and the Maputo Protocol, yet many girls remain at risk.

Organizations like NRC provide survivors with protection, psychosocial support, cash assistance, and safe referrals. For girls like Aisha, these interventions turn despair into hope.

“Early marriage is not a solution, it is a tragedy,” Aisha says. Protection, care, and community support give survivors a chance to reclaim their childhoods and futures.

Buurhakaba: Taariikh Digniin ah iyo Casharro Laga Baran Karo

Image
  Hordhac: Degmada Buurhakaba waa magaalo leh taariikh qoto dheer oo ku qasbaysa qof kasta inuu dib u milicsado marxaladihii ay soo martay. Taariikhdaas ma aha oo keliya xusuus hore, balse waa cashar nool oo ka tarjumaya waaqaca maanta jira. Nasiib darro, marar badan lagama baran wixii dhacay, xitaa waxaa dhici karta in si fudud loo iloobo. Maahmaahda uu yiri Malaaq Guudaw: (Aawkaa dhimedii dhegtoo wu, Aawka wal dhedhaansedaayine dheg xumo wu) waxay xambaarsan tahay digniin ah in haddii aan la maqal casharka taariikhda, qaladku soo noqnoqonayo, iyo in aan gumeysi laqaadan karin. Buurhakaba iyo Dagaalladii 1991–1992: Dagaalladii sokeeye ee billowday 1991, Buurhakaba waxay ahayd mid ka mid ah goobihii ugu dambeeyey ee lagu dagaallamo kahor inta aysan qabsan ciidankii dowladdii Mohamed Siad Barre ee soo roggaal celiyey Magaalada, waxaa hormuud ka ahaa dadkii deegaanka oo door muuqda ka qaatay ka hortagga burburka iyo xoreynta aagga. Jaaliyadda reer Buurhakaba ee ku noolaa Sacuudiga ay...
