Our goals
- raise awareness about Amala’s work
- advocate for education for displaced youth
- stay updated on refugee news
- build our capacity as changemakers
Supporting curriculum development
One direct way that we support Amala is by contributing to curriculum development. Many of us have participated in curriculum hackathons where we worked with other educators and refugee learners to develop the courses. We are also in the process of proofreading courses to make sure the English is accessible for students.
Awareness raising
We have helped to raise awareness about Amala through events such as the service fair and speaking at an MUN conference. We have also hosted a Q&A session with the founders of Amala and Daniel, who helped set up the learning hub in Kakuma Refugee Camp in Kenya.
One of our favourite events involved joining a G1 class; after a fruitful discussion on the similarities and differences between our lives and those of displaced youth, the G1 students wrote letters to Amala students.
