“In the Mogadishu Network”, edited by Marco Trovato, editorial director of Africa Rivista, is the new reportage created in collaboration with Nexus ER as part of the project INFORMA.L. – Educate, Regulate, TRAIN, Work. From informal to formal for inclusive growth, peace and social dialogue in Somalia”- AID 012590/03/0.
The reportage, made in the Somali capital, tells the story of a city marked by decades of war and still under threat from jihadist terrorism, in which fishing represents hope for thousands of people, despite the extreme working conditions. In fact, Mogadishu, a young and dynamic city but also marked by a situation of instability and insecurity, is strongly linked to informal work, especially in the small-scale trade and fishing sectors.
In this context, Nexus ER, in collaboration with FESTU – Federation of Somali Trade Unions, through the INFORMA.L. project, aims to promote decent work, inclusive growth, social dialogue and rights for the most vulnerable workers.
