The Ministry of Education, Culture, and Higher Learning of the Federal Government of Somalia, in collaboration with the Banadir Regional Administration, has completed a major renovation of the Mohamuud Ahmed Ali Vocational School, located in the Kaaraan district of Mogadishu.

The event celebrated the school’s upgraded facilities and renewed commitment to providing high-quality technical and vocational education and training (TVET) to Somali youth.

The state minister of Education, Ms. Nuro Mustafa, emphasized that the school’s rehabilitation is part of the Ministry’s broader strategy to strengthen vocational training across the country. “This project ensures that young Somalis acquire practical skills that will empower them to build sustainable livelihoods,” she said.
