I would recommend sending Somalis to apprentice in places like Morocco as part of some bilateral deal between Somalis and Morocco, but they'd just tahriib.

I really admire the craftspeople of north Africa, their long established traditions of handcrafts and mosaics give their cities such a distinctive visual appeal. Something we are severely lacking in Somali towns and cities.
