IOM Somalia - Muna Beauty make-up workshop

“I have learned and gained a lot of knowledge from this make-up workshop. Before, I didn't know how to apply make-up very well, but now I have learnt new techniques,” says Hamda Mohammed, a Somali returnee who recently came back from Libya.

During March and April, IOM Somalia partnered with Muna Jama, a Somali make-up artist and businesswoman based in Hargeisa. Through the EU-IOM Joint Initiative, a total of 30 women returnees and vulnerable women residing in Hargeisa received an education scholarship to participate in one of Muna’s beauty workshops, offering them the opportunity to learn new skills.

Trans.Lieu was commisioned to produce a video clip and a set of photographs summarizing the make-up beauty workshop.
