At Refugee Youth Changemakers (RYCM), we believe in the power of peer-led learning and community-driven solutions. Our facilitators are the heartbeat of our programs—mentoring, guiding, and equipping refugee youth with the skills and confidence they need to thrive.

Whether you’re an educator, mentor, activist, or student passionate about youth empowerment, you can join our mission to nurture young leaders from refugee backgrounds across Africa.

As a facilitator, you will:

  • Lead sessions in digital skills, life skills, podcasting, or entrepreneurship

  • Inspire hope and resilience through mentorship and storytelling

  • Connect with youth in refugee communities and amplify their potential

  • Co-create safe, inclusive learning spaces with a youth-centered approach

  • Receive training and resources to enhance your impact

Who Can Apply?

We welcome facilitators who are:

  • Passionate about refugee empowerment and youth leadership

  • Fluent in English, French, or local languages (Kinyarwanda, Swahili, Kirundi, etc.)
