Zaylai Publishing Project

The ZF feasibility study in 2005 indicated a pressing need for publishing services in order to ensure a healthier growth of educational establishments. Prof. Hussein Toohow who is in charge of the UNESCO national curriculum team expressed the problems they faced with publishing and said

The shortage of adequate printing and publishing services in Somalia cost us huge sums of money which we could have provided with more books for schools if some of such cost could have been saved.
