In the heart of Mogadishu, a living history is being saved. Through UNESCO's Memory of the World Programme-JFIT initiative, funded by the Government of Japan, the Radio Mogadishu archive—one of East Africa's most significant audio collections—is being digitized, protected, and preserved for future generations. This is more than saving tapes. It is about protecting voices that shaped a nation, music that defined an era, and stories that connect Somalis across time and borders. From scholars and elders to young journalists and artists in the diaspora, this work ensures that Somalia's cultural memory can continue to speak, teach, and inspire. Because memory, once lost, cannot be recovered. But when it is protected, it can shape the future. 🔗 unes.co/h3ozsr #ForThePeople #MemoryOfTheWorld
