On August 5, 2025, Kaalo Nederland and PIMAT celebrated the graduation of 30 young women who completed a two-year diploma in Office Management and Secretary. The ceremony, held at Kaalo Nederland’s Youth Center Hall in Garowe, brought together government officials, parliamentarians, universities, and community leaders.
Speakers praised the project for transforming lives and called for more initiatives that equip young women with marketable skills and employment opportunities.
A highlight of the event was when two institutions attending the ceremony offered jobs to two graduates on the spot, showing the program’s real impact in connecting skills with the job market.
Beyond the ceremony, the Women in Leadership project has had a lasting impact: 8 of the graduates also secured employment at the end of their two-month internship program, proving that the training provided is directly opening doors to real opportunities.
The Women in Leadership project continues to be a model of empowerment, opening doors for young women and strengthening their role in Puntland’s social and economic development.
