About Abaarso Network

Founded in 2009, the Abaarso Network has been tackling illiteracy, gender discrimination, and lack of opportunity by providing world-class education at the primary, secondary and post-secondary levels in a part of the world that most people have written off as hopeless.

Abaarso Network has pioneered innovative solutions where others have failed. We provide a comprehensive education ecosystem that goes from kindergarten to employment. The result is no less than a fundamental transformation of Somaliland.

Reaching out to friends, family, and other personal/professional networks can go a long way in generating interest and support for Abaarso.
