Manage episode 338697030 series 2867406
The Digital Economy has brought with it a new reality in which you can now work wherever you are, as long as you have the skills. This has created a lot of opportunities everywhere, but none have the potential to benefit from it as much as refugees, 70% of whom live in countries that have restrictions around their right to work.
To explore the challenges refugees face when seeking work and how remote work can completely change the narrative of employment for refugees, in today’s episode we have Lorraine Charles. She is the Co-Founder and Executive Director of Na'amal, a non-profit organization that provides refugees and other vulnerable populations training in marketable skills required in the global labor market and links them to these jobs.
Tune in to learn all about this amazing organization and how you can be a part of changing the lives of refugees worldwide.
