Somali Youth fighting for their Lives

By Kaltun Osman and Warda Hassan

Education
The youth in somalia dont have shelter, food and clothes because of the war and the disaster which somali people are facing almost so many years. Somali youths are struggling to get education in Mogadishu where their lives are at risk or danger. But, they don’t care because education is so much important to them (Education is the key to succeed)

Unemployment
The youth in Somalia, especially those who are living in the areas where Alshabab are controlling are being forced to join their organization, because there is no job in the country because of war.

Early Marriage
The youth marry at an early age, because they have nothing to do in their country because of the endless war. Especially girls, they get married at early age and get pregnant. After that they are left with the responsibility to take care of the children, as the father goes away after that.

Drowning while fleeing
Many Somali youth try to leave the country to places abroad by using small boats through the sea. On the way, the boats sink in the sea because it is too small and the youth die in the sea
