Skill-Up Kenya

🚀 REFUGEE SKILLS & EMPLOYMENT PROGRAM – 2026 INTAKE NOW OPEN (MWIKI – KASARANI)

INDUS CONNECT (Skill-Up Kenya) in partnership with Promise of Hope CBO – Mwiki is officially rolling out the 2026 Refugee Skills Development Program after a successful pilot in 2025 that empowered dozens of young people and families with real, usable skills and job pathways.

This year we are targeting 200 refugees for practical, employment-focused training in:

👩‍⚕️ Caregiving & Home-based Care (local & international opportunities)
💻 Computer Literacy & Digital Skills (office work, online jobs & study support)
🗣️ Functional English Communication (workplace & daily life confidence)
🚗 Driving & Road Safety Training (licensed income opportunities)

Why this program matters to YOU

Many refugees have education, talent and ambition — but lack local certification, language confidence, work exposure and industry linkage.
This program is designed to close that gap.

✔ Practical skills — not theory
✔ Friendly learning environment for refugees
✔ Flexible & supportive trainers
✔ Job guidance & industry connection
✔ Community-based training in Kasarani (accessible & safe)

Whether you are:
• A youth seeking your first opportunity
• A parent needing stable income skills
• A graduate lacking Kenyan work exposure
• Someone stuck without direction

👉 This program was created specifically for you.

📍 Location: Mwiki, Kasarani
📅 2026 Cohort Enrollment Ongoing
