Somali community in Finland
Somalis in Finland are residents and citizens of Finland of Somali ancestry. They are Finland’s third-largest minority, after Russians and Estonians.
==Overview==
The first Somali immigrants came to Finland in the early 1990s. Between 1990 and 1995, the number of Somalia citizens in Finland jumped from 44 to 4,044. The first arrivals were university students from Soviet universities in the former Soviet Union (see Zahra Abdulla). Later, more asylum seekers arrived directly from Somalia, many through a program of family unification.〔(Foreigners in Finland -ex Virtual Finland 2008 archived at Wayback Machine )〕
Like other immigrant groups in Finland, particularly Muslims, Somalis have been targets of hate crimes. According to a 2009 report by the Police College of Finland, 8% of total victims were Somali-born, while representing only 4% of suspected offenders.〔(Hate Crimes Reported in Finland, 2008 )〕 Most suspected perpetrators are young Finnish men, with similarly-aged Somali, Iraqi and Turkish immigrants mainly targeted.〔(The number of racist crimes drops – the impact of the phenomenon of hate speech is still a mystery )〕 According to social workers, the pressure of living between two disparate cultures has also resulted in instances of petty crime amongst disaffected 17- to 20-year-olds in the Somali community. The situation is compounded by the unfamiliarity of Somali parents with the various social services that are available to address similar circumstances. To tackle the issue, Somali community organizations have teamed up with Finnish police and social services officials, with the municipal authorities in Helsinki endeavouring to recruit more Somali social workers.〔(Helsinki officials and Somali community groups ponder youth crime issue )〕
As with many other immigrant groups in Finland, Somalis have also faced some barriers to employment, due in part to the local economic recession but also to xenophobic attitudes on the part of many potential employers.〔(Huge differences in employment rates among immigrants from various countries )〕〔(Somalis’ employment situation improving steadily )〕 However, the situation has steadily improved over the years, as more Somali immigrants have found employment in their own community, although much of this work is unmeasured. While some Somalis with language training have found jobs in their own field, others, like immigrants in general, have obtained short-term work positions.〔
