Understanding the context

One of the most persecuted peoples on earth

The Rohingya are a Muslim ethnic minority who lived for generations in Myanmar, denied citizenship since 1982. Violence in August 2017 forced hundreds of thousands to flee to Bangladesh, where nearly a million people now live in the Cox's Bazar camps.

Our approach

Not another generation of dependency

Eight years of emergency response have kept people alive — but aid was never designed to build a future. What the community needs now is a pathway into the global digital economy, where borders and bureaucracy can't close the door.

Digital skills training

Practical, market-relevant instruction — from basic computer literacy to freelancing, graphic design, and other in-demand digital skills.

Structured, consistent learning

A dedicated learning space and a real curriculum — not one-off workshops — so skills compound into genuine capability over time.

A path to independence

The goal isn't a certificate — it's the ability to earn an independent, remote income from inside the camp, on the learner's own terms.

Our facility
