Redsea Cultural Foundation is delighted to host a talk on “updates on Advanced Research on Somali Language and Literature” by Dr Martin Orwin, School of Oriental and African Studies, the University of London.

Somali language and literature has recently been going through a rapid transformation because of the current transition of oral to written by the growing Somali Diaspora and impact of the new technology. Therefore, it’s excited time for Independent researchers and institutions that are doing research on this field of Somali studies.
