MinbarFellowship is three weeks annual residential program that brings together 15 young, promising and emerging leaders from all walks of Somalia. The program is named after Adden Abdulle Osman, the first democratic president in Somalia.
In honor of his legacy, and to draw inspiration from his peerless statesmanship, patriotism, democratic ideals, the fellowship shall be named after him. This is intentional, anchored on the need to chart a clear vision for the fellows, on the direction their education and experience, should aspire for. The fellowships will bring together 15 young, promising leaders (both male and female) from all fields and regions in Somalia
