Techfugees LEBANON 🇱🇧
Le Liban est l'un des pays accueillant le plus grand nombre de réfugiés par rapport à sa population nationale, avec environ 3 millions de personnes déplacées à l'échelle nationale. Un sur trois vient de Syrie ainsi que des centaines de milliers de réfugiés palestiniens de longue date. En raison de la crise politique et économique actuelle qui affecte tout habitant du pays, beaucoup sont sans emploi et souffrent de situations précaires. Le chapitre de Techfugees au Liban a été lancé en mars 2019 en mettant l'accent sur l'accès à l'emploi par le numérique pour les réfugiés syriens et palestiniens dans la Bekaa, Beyrouth et Tripoli.
NOS ACTIVITÉs
EMPLOI
Nous travaillons avec des personnes réfugiées au Liban pour faciliter l’accès à des opportunités de travail à distance. Nous permettons des discussions, une sensibilisation et des formations sur les projets existants de la “gig economy”. Nous travaillons en partenariat avec Humans in the Loop pour former et offrir des opportunités de travail de Data Labelling à distance à des promotions de 25 personnes réfugiées. Nous sommes également soutenus par la Western Union Foundation pour faciliter un corridor d’emploi numérique entre le Liban et le Canada pour les réfugiés avec des profils qualifiés dans le secteur tech.
BONNES PRATIQUES
Nous partageons les leçons retenues et nos découvertes dans des cercles plus larges (conférences et think-tanks) pour informer sur les urgences et besoins pressants du terrain. Ceci afin que les solutions tech pensées et testées soient plus pertinentes.
