Minority communities and displaced families also face heightened risks, while journalists are often targeted for exposing abuses taking place across the country.

This week, the Baraarug campaign spoke with Abdullahi Hassan, Amnesty International’s researcher for Somalia and Sudan, who discussed the organization’s efforts to advocate for human rights in Somalia.

These include documenting U.S. drone strikes that have killed civilians, as well as broader concerns about accountability.

Mr. Hassan also highlighted the increasing attacks on journalists in Somalia and the severe chilling effect these have had on freedom of expression.

He emphasized that meaningful advocacy requires accountability.

That is why Amnesty International continues to engage with the Somali government and international partners who fund Somali authorities.

Most importantly, Mr. Hassan stressed that it is the duty of every Somali citizen—especially the youth—to stand up for their rights and demand that their human rights are respected.
