Kiron is an edtech non-profit dedicated to providing refugees and underserved communities free access to high-quality education, bridging skill gaps and promoting inclusion in the job market.
After forced migration, refugees usually encounter challenges continuing education. Discontinuing education can impact their ability to gain skills, get decent jobs and rebuild their lives leaving them vulnerable to poverty and dependence.
