Microsoft and UNHCR have launched the Connected Education program to provide future-ready skills training for young people in Kakuma refugee camp and in the host community. The program aims to reach 25,000 youth in Kenya by the end of 2020. With the help of NGO partners and local government, young people are learning digital skills to prepare them for livelihood opportunities.
