Sudanese youth are setting the motion by driving change towards a better future – through activations filled with love, dedication and empathy, their difference continues to plant seeds of inspiration in all of us!
One notable individual, Leila Suraj, has been carving a unique path that has been impacting the Sudanese community in remarkable ways!
With a drive to make meaningful and creative contributions to the community, Leila has always expressed heartfelt support and advocacy for women in business, emphasising the importance of establishing spaces where women can share their dreams, fears and stories.
It was during her time at Ahfad University for Women where she discovered many of her hidden talents, including writing, photography, events management and much more.
Shortly after that, she joined an incubation programme, which led to the creation of her pride and joy!

Sharkina was born to find a solution to a problem – Leila wanted to educate, enlighten and support women in understanding the value of their crafts, and turning them into profitable businesses.
She started teaching the ladies of Omdurman Souq the basics of entrepreneurship, helping them increase their incomes significantly and improve their quality of life.

With Leila’s arrival in the UAE after the Sudan Crisis broke out, the need for such an initiative was highlighted, especially amongst Sudanese women.
Now, attracting a growing audience of women from different nationalities, Sharkina has helped open new doors for businesses and received international exposure, with her demand showing up in several communities across KSA, Egypt, Oman and plenty more.
Many aspiring entrepreneurs from Sharkina’s network benefitted from various business events, workshops and sessions, eventually opening their own businesses, adding even more success stories to Sharkina’s magnificent impact on society.
