Entrepreneurship for Migrants and Refugees
A family of Somali refugees started a small business producing sauces in Odesa, Ukraine. The owner, Lul Ibrahim Mohamed, 34, started her business with the support of her children Munira, 16, and Ibrahim, 15. They have registered ‘Lul sauce’ Ltd and received relevant certificates on compliance with technical standards. UNCTAD, in partnership with the International Organization for Migration and the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) opened a photo exhibit in Geneva, Switzerland, on 18 November 2019 to show how migrant and refugee entrepreneurs contribute to the economic and social development of their host and origin countries. The exhibit was organized as part of Global Entrepreneurship Week 2019 and the photos were displayed in the Palais des Nations.
