An Analysis of Somali Print, Online Media, Radio and TV

Mohamed Husein Gaas, Stig Jarle Hansen and David Berry have prepared an excellent analysis and survey of Somali print, online, radio and television media. Titled Mapping the Somali Media: An Overview, it is dated March 2012 and available on the NORAGRIC website. Click here for the full report.

NORAGRIC was established in 1986 as a center at the former Norwegian Agricultural University. In 2005, it became the Department of International Environment and Development Studies at the renamed Norwegian University of Life Sciences.

This is a fascinating study of a an important topic both in Somalia and the diaspora that has received little attention in recent years.
