Saba Abraham honoured with OAM for empowering African communities
Brisbane, January 26 (MCCQ Newsdesk)
Saba Abraham has been awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) in the 2025 Australia Day Honours, recognizing her exceptional contributions to the Eritrean and African communities in Australia. Abraham’s passion for women’s empowerment led her to establish Mu’ooz Eritrean Restaurant and Catering in Brisbane’s West End. The restaurant has become a vital hub, employing and training African refugee and migrant women to build linguistic skills, understand Australian culture, and expand their professional networks.
Beyond serving traditional Eritrean cuisine, Mu’ooz provides a safe space for women to gain confidence, develop skills, and integrate into their new community. This initiative highlights Abraham’s unwavering commitment to fostering inclusion and opportunity for marginalized groups.
The OAM formally acknowledges Abraham’s dedication to empowering women and enriching Australia’s multicultural fabric.
