Why Join Our Program
This program empowers youth from Kakuma and Kalobeyei across the region with hands-on tools and knowledge to lead local transformation. Through structured conversation circles and leadership workshops, we train future changemakers to:
- Address conflict with practical resolution strategies
- Design solutions for community problems
- Lead local projects with confidence and impact
- Use digital tools to amplify local voices
We also nurture non-technical skills like communication, emotional intelligence, and community dialogue—ensuring participants are equipped to lead long after the program ends.
