After a successful pilot-programme where more than 80 young women graduated with diplomas in AI tools,Web Development and Coding, Movement on the Ground(MOTG) is eager to continue and expand the Digital Academy in Lebanon. With the education system in Lebanon at a stand-still, young people can't gain the skills they need to find a job. Thanks to this program many of our graduates have already found jobs. With your help we can enroll more new students, and give them a chance at a better future!
The education system in Lebanon has ground to a halt, with teachers going on strike as a consequence of not receiving their salaries for months on end. With education opportunities therefore limited to those attending private schools, many young Lebanese find themselves without access to education. Finding work is also a challenge, especially without good education.
Movement on the Ground started it's Digital Academy in Lebanon to offer education to 108 young women. Three different programs were available, focusing on Coding, Web Development, and the use of AI Tools. Specifically set up to enable students to find jobs in these sectors, the program is a grand success, with more than 80% of the students successfully graduating. Many of these graduates were quickly offered jobs in their chosen fields, or for 20 of them, a scholarship for further AI education.
Many local parents are especially enthusiastic about the results of the program, and want their children to take part. With education and employment comes safety and stability for entire families. With every extra donation, we are able to offer this education program to more students. Please donate, please spread the word, to make sure that as many students as possible can receive a worthwhile education, and a chance at a brighter future!
