Hargeisa Debates is a dynamic platform dedicated to fostering informed dialogue and meaningful discourse in Somaliland. We bring together a diverse group of speakers, including leaders, experts, and community members, to discuss pressing issues that shape our nation.

"At Hargeisa Debates, every voice matters".

Hargeisa Debates aims to foster informed dialogue, civic engagement, and democratic participation by providing a neutral platform for inclusive discussions on Somaliland’s key socio-political, economic, and development issues. We strive to bridge the gap between citizens, leaders, and experts through open debates that empower the public and enhance transparency in governance.

We envision a democratic Somaliland where informed citizens actively participate in shaping the nation’s future. By nurturing a culture of dialogue and debate, we aspire to build a society that values critical thinking, inclusivity, and peaceful discourse.
