The third\u00a0Nordic Somali Youth Summit was arranged in 2014 and gathered 200 Somali youth from Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Iceland and Finland. The DignityArt project from the Oslo and Stockholm summit was taken further at the Copenhagen\u00a0summit, using the participants input to enhance\u00a0the proud\u00a0poetry traditions of Somalia.<\/p>\n

Before the conference, the youth were invited to send in their favorite Somali poem, or a poem of their own, or other words for inspiration. A great, international mixture of\u00a0poetry, wise words and\u00a0proverbs from all over the world was the result – a true international\u00a0attitude.<\/p>\n

Inspirational texts from the youth were printed on cards – with text on one side and\u00a0traditional, colorful pattern on the other side. The cards were hanging from the ceiling, welcoming everyone on their way in to the conference room.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
