Born in the Hagadera refugee camp in Kenya, Khadija’s journey from a refugee to an international beauty pageant contestant is nothing short of extraordinary. She is also the first-ever Miss Universe Somalia to compete at this level, setting a new milestone for the nation. In 2010, Khadija and her family moved to Canada, a turning point that significantly shaped her path. Growing up in a new country allowed her to embrace her Somali roots while navigating the opportunities and challenges of a different cultural environment. This background has deeply influenced her passion for representing not only Somali women but Muslim women on a global stage, where diversity and inclusion in beauty standards are still evolving.

Competing in a hijab, Khadija aims to challenge stereotypes and redefine traditional notions of beauty, emphasizing that modesty and cultural pride can coexist with global beauty standards. Her story resonates with millions, especially young girls from marginalized backgrounds who aspire to break boundaries and redefine their own narratives. Miss Universe Somalia 2024 is not just a pageant title for Khadija; it is a platform to raise awareness about refugee issues, women’s rights, and the importance of diversity in all aspects of life. As she prepares to step onto the Miss Universe stage, Khadija is not only a symbol of beauty but of hope, strength, and empowerment for women worldwide.
