Gobannimo programme

[somaliscarface]

Gobannimo is a very complex word with a broad range of meanings including freedom and liberty, but also implying a dignified, coherent, independent, giving, tolerant, and respectful approach to dealing with other people. In other words, it encompasses all that is good and achievable by free and responsible human beings.

Gobannimo has an inherent sense of reaching an ultimate state of human responsibility and thus is very relevant to the interlinked notions of citizenship and freedom. Although it relates to personal development and individual dignity it is also at the heart of many strands of current social and political thought amongst Somalis, which will be explored through art and literature.

The festival will focus on poetry, prose literature, and music, which will be presented and discussed by artists and audiences. We are proud to have invited a range of guests including renowned artists, academics and commentators.
