The online users and access to internet have been getting momentum in Somalia and at the same time, the breaches of social media have been on the rise. People log in to their social media site and notice a string of posts or messages definitely not posted by them or they get a message that their account password has been changed without their knowledge.
Women’s and men’s equal participation in governance processes and the decisions that affect their lives are vital for achieving inclusive and effective governance system in Somalia. Puntland, an autonomous state under Federal Republic of Somalia has 53 districts which all are required to have local councils to represent the community as the legislative body of their respective district.
There are active 11 women groups in Puntland dedicated for culture promotion and produce very attractive locally made home appliances such as those used for milking, sleeping mats and other valuable items. The cultural productions are strongly interested and has a market but unfortunately, they are not known by all Somalis. The exhibition of their products could help these women groups to show the public about their potential skills and productions. Furthermore, these women groups with skilled members on production of cultural items are interesting to pass such skills to younger women but there is no a platform where they can showcase such productive skills………..
