21-year-old Janeth George successfully completed Camara Tanzania’s Youth Digital Skills course, and it has literally changed her life. She said:“Thanks to the Youth Digital Skills Program, I am now employed by Dospects Studio. My family believed in marriage, and I struggled to break free from that expectation due to financial dependence on them. But now, after completing the programme, I have gained employable skills and managed to get work. Many thanks to Camara Education, Tanzania."hubs.ly/Q02GxD7h0#WorldYouthSkillsDay #YouthEmpowerment #SkillsForTheFuture #CamaraEducation ... See MoreSee Less

“My name is Everlyne Mkabili. I am a student from Kenya Coast National Polytechnic pursuing a Diploma in Information Communication Technology. I am currently enrolled as an intern at Camara Education Kenya, a charity that provides computers, teacher training, and innovative learning programs to schools across Africa.I came to know Camara through a teacher at Ribe Girl’s High School – I received three offers of attachments but the teacher advised me to select Camara since it was the best.From the very start, the learning environment has been friendly and understanding and the skills I have learned so far are top-notch. Among other things, I have learned how to dismantle and assemble all the external and internal parts of a PC; how to install various operating systems to different PCs; how to troubleshoot by running diagnostics; and how to make storage devices bootable.With these few but important skills, I have been able to help a computer teacher at Ribe Girls’ High School solve a problem with one of his computers that had stopped working (the computer was not powering on, and if it was powering on, there was no display). I gave a solution to this scenario by asking him to remove the PC RAM sticks and clean them, as well as the RAM slots. I also asked him to check the power cable supplying power to the motherboard. After a few minutes, I received feedback from the same teacher, who happily explained to me that the directives I gave him worked successfully. As we continue with this program, my hope is to gain more skills so that I can use them to build my future career as an IT Support Specialist.” hubs.ly/Q02GxGQn0#WorldYouthSkillsDay #YouthEmpowerment #SkillsForTheFuture #CamaraEducation ...

As part of our recent upgrade to the computer lab at Hermann Gmeiner Primary School, we collected the old computer equipment in order to ensure that it was disposed of properly. Camara aims to create a closed loop system for all e-waste generated through our projects, keeping it out of landfill. In Zambia we partner with CFK to ensure it is appropriately recycled. ...

The school at the SOS Children’s Village, just outside Lusaka, Zambia, is now called Hermann Gmeiner Primary School. At the request of the Headteacher, and with support from PWC, we recently upgraded the lab there, replacing the old computers with modern devices. We set up 25 desktop computers, a Local Area Network and a classroom server packed with educational resources for the learners. Due to high demand for Junior Secondary places in the area, the school has added grades 8 and 9, whose students will be taking computer studies as a compulsory subject. ... See MoreSee Less
