Up With Africa is committed to ensuring that refugee children are never deprived of their right to education and for youth
to renew their hope for future lives. Education provides stability, regularity, and hope while equipping young people with skills to meet future challenges.
For refugees, learning fosters integration into new communities and supports the rebuilding of societies affected by war and violence.
Education is a fundamental right, enshrined in international law and the Sustainable Development Goals, and it must be protected even in displacement or crisis.
TECH EMPLOYMENT
Digital skill is the future
Digital employment offers refugees and low-income communities the opportunity to access meaningful work in the fast-growing tech sector.
Through our programs, we train participants with essential computer skills, including computer programming.
These skills enhance career opportunities and empower refugees to achieve economic independence and actively contribute to their community’s economy.
By bridging the digital divide, we create pathways for inclusion, enabling participants to transform their futures and rebuild their livelihoods through technology.
SPORTS & GAMES
Play heals
Sports and games provide more than physical activity, they are powerful tools for healing and growth. Play heals by
reducing stress, building resilience, and strengthening both physical and mental well-being.
For children, it fosters creativity, teamwork, and confidence, while for youth and adults, it creates safe spaces
to release tension, connect with others, and rebuild hope. In refugee and low-income communities, sports and
games unite people across cultures, promote inclusion, and inspire peace, proving that play is essential to human dignity and healing.
Our goal is to unlock the abilities and potential of refugees and low-income people
through a long term solution of advanced learning, leadership and entrepreneurship experience to create positive change.
