3 out of every 4 young people in Kakuma Refugee Camp are without work, trapped in a cycle of inactivity and despair- but your creative agency can make all the difference!
Kenya has a staggering 10 million youth in the active labor force, with a whopping 31.45% either under-employed or completely unemployed. The under-employed, who often work less than 40 hours a week, are desperate to clock in more hours if only the opportunities existed.
Yet, this nationwide struggle for employment pales in comparison to the grim reality faced by the youth in Kakuma.
