She lives with her family of eleven in Gacan Libaax in Somaliland. They have a very limited income and her father, though he struggles to pay her school fees, has always encouraged her to find something she is passionate about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAfter deciding to drop out from the university, I put my entire focus on the training that I was getting. It was sensational and the most skillful experience I have ever gotten before,\u201d says Naciima, who joined the Finn Church Aid\u2019s TVET program recently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She got to know about the course from one of her friends who went to the Horn of Africa Voluntary Youth Committee TVET Center. When deciding to apply, she says she felt at peace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMy dream has always been to design clothes \u2013 coming up with ways to make them look fashionable. It was a dream come true when I found out about the training and I immediately joined without consulting my family. However, afterwards I told them about my decision.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">&#8220;Without the training I would not have become the woman I am today&#8221;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Naciima says that she gained skills from the tailoring course, including how to start business and practical tailoring skills. During the training, she was inspired by two things. Firstly, the way to come up with new designs and, secondly, the profits she could be make, especially since tailoring skills are in demand the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Naciima has become an advocate for TVET and wants to explain the benefits of it and how it leads to profit making.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWithout the training I would not have become the woman I am today \u2013 a business woman, an independent woman, and career-oriented individual.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After graduating from the program, Naciima and the other graduates, received business start-up grants and equipment that helped her to start a business that could also support her family. Her idea was to start a tailoring shop that produces fresh looks in women\u2019s clothing. She knew that the majority of ladies in Somaliland liked to wear tailored clothes and knowing her market helped her come up with her designs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">High hopes for the future<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Within the first three months, the business was booming and made a decent profit. She hopes that in future she can support her family even more. At the moment she supports family in other ways than just financially \u2013 she makes clothes for her younger siblings. Some of her earning go into servicing her machines but her support for her family motivates her siblings and helps them to believe that they too can start a business and support the family in future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Naciima is optimistic about the future and dreams of hiring more people for her business to meet the growing demand. This woman, who had waited to be supported by her family, has now become the one who supports them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI am able to save the money;\u00a0average $100\u2013150 in month,\u201d she says.
