The initiative seeks to equip rural youth in the Marsabit region with practical digital competencies, mentorship, and innovation support to create income opportunities and improve digital skills for brighter futures. It provides a structured and integrated response to the growing gap between digital skills and economic opportunities; therefore, Nuru Trust Network intends to empower rural youth through digital skills.
Many rural youths, especially in the Marsabit region, face significant barriers to participating in the digital economy due to limited access to digital devices and affordable internet, and limited employment opportunities, forcing many youths into low-income informal work. These barriers leave the youth unprepared for an increasingly technology-driven job market and limit their ability to contribute meaningfully to local and national development.
Nuru Trust Network therefore intends to address this challenge by empowering rural youth for self-reliance with practical digital skills. Your donation will help move the project beyond basic digital literacy to focus on practical application and economic empowerment.
In the long term, if these rural youths are empowered, they will be more productive and contribute meaningfully to sustainable livelihoods, stimulate the local digital innovation spaces, create technological tools that respond to community challenges, and contribute to a generation that builds solutions.
