Action for Refugee Life Conducts its First Lessons for Digital Marketing Training Course, powered with Hubspot Curriculum.

In a landmark moment for the Kakuma refugee camp, Action for Refugee Life (AReL) officially launches its Digital Marketing Training Course for refugees. Our program signals the start of a new journey for many hopeful students. It marks a key milestone in our mission to empower the refugee community. 

Challenges: Ensuring access to AReL as a resource to a large community.

Upon the completion of induction, students were given the flexibility to choose their preferred session - morning or afternoon, keeping in mind their other commitments. 

To be inclusive and cater to the broader community, we adapted our approach to allow students to attend classes online.

Successes: Celebrating Progress - A Digital Community Begins To Form

Despite the adaptations, attendance has remained the same. Student participation has been robust, with active involvement and consistent assignment submissions marking the third week of our digital classes. The eagerness to learn is palpable, with students spending their entire day at the center or heading straight over after their work days. They are eager to put their newly-acquired digital marketing skills to practice. Their dedication is a testament to their resolve to better their lives but also highlights the camp's scarcity of services, resources, and initiatives.

Summary: A Remarkable Journey - From Aspirations to Achievements

AReL's journey in setting up the Digital Marketing Training Course for refugees at Kakuma camp has been rewarding and challenging. Every step has required resilience and creativity, from program placement to adapting our strategies to better suit our students' needs. The successful launch of our pilot classes is a testament to our commitment and the aspirational spirit of our students. 

What's Next?

We will be preparing for graduation of the first cohort and preparing launch of our next training course in Data Analysis (currently planned for Sept, 2023)
