The Rako Research and Communication Centre firmly upholds the notion that knowledge- seeking and creating an appropriate environment for critical thinking are integral components of any society. Thus, the promotion of intellectual capacity is not merely an objective for Rako, but rather it is the very essence of our existence. Our mission is to bridge the gap between research and action through effective communication. It is imperative to blend theoretical research with practical activities to achieve a more productive and pragmatic societal change. Rako aims to challenge the conventional narrative prevalent in the Somali regions, where research is typically limited to report writing, seminars and sporadic journal articles. Our organization contends that significant social change is more likely to be realized when it is coupled with activities that promote positive transformation.
