Message from the Founder

Somali Youth Returnees Network (SYRN) was founded to support and empower young Somalis who have returned home after difficult migration journeys. Many youth risk their lives through irregular migration, often facing exploitation and hardship along the way.

At SYRN, we believe returnee youth have the strength, experience, and potential to become leaders and agents of positive change in Somalia. Our mission is to raise awareness about the risks of irregular migration, support reintegration, and create opportunities for youth to rebuild their futures at home.

Together, we can turn the experience of return into hope, resilience, and opportunity.

As SYRN Today we honor the bravery of Somali women returnees who turn hardship into hope and challenges into leadership. Their strength inspires communities and contributes to building a more inclusive and resilient Somalia.

SYRN remains committed to amplifying their voices, supporting their reintegration, and working with partners to ensure that women returnees are recognized, protected, and empowered.

Happy International Women’s Day to all Somali women returnees — your strength, courage, and resilience shape the future.

The variation in returnee numbers between 2020 and 2024 reflects broader political, economic, and regional transitions affecting Somalia and host countries.
