How We Work

Community-Based Learning We bring training directly to refugee settlements, meeting women where they are and creating safe, supportive learning environments.
Peer-to-Peer Support Participants learn together, building networks of mutual support and accountability that extend beyond the classroom.
Practical, Not Theoretical Every session includes hands-on practice. Women leave with real portfolios, active social media accounts, and functional digital skills they can use immediately.
Culturally Responsive Our curriculum respects diverse backgrounds, languages, and learning styles. We adapt to each community’s unique needs and strengths.
