Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) are essential skills for any career that a student may want to pursue in the future. The use of computers and their applications can be found in courses outside of technology studies, such as natural sciences, humanities, and business studies. At GAID, we offer two courses on ICT that cater to the needs of youths in Kakuma: Basic ICT and full stack developers. With these skills, we aim to unlock the creativity of youths and enable them to transform their communities through innovations and virtual entrepreneurship, paving the way for decent livelihoods and economic growth both online and offline.
With a focus on tailoring and dressmaking, our craft training program provides practical skills and knowledge through hands-on training and attachments to local tailoring businesses. Complimentary, participants take part in entrepreneurship training to equip them with the skills needed to start and run their own successful businesses. This program empowers individuals with the tools necessary to create their own opportunities and achieve self-sufficiency.
GAID’s English language program is designed to meet the needs of beginners, intermediates, and advanced learners. We offer Communicative English classes for youths who need to improve their communicative skills for day-to-day interactions & return to the community with a better understanding of English in its written and oral forms.
