Thanks to @REFHorn for organising such an engaging & stimulating #REFConference22. It was great to present @IDMC_Geneva's research and learn more about #displacement, #protection & #inclusion from the other speakers.
Andhira @AndhiraKara, the lead country researcher for the study on RLOs, and Mark from the Dadaab Response Association (@ddadaab) presented preliminary findings from the study on RLOs at the #REFConference22
Great final words from Dr. Linda Oucho @AMADPOC at #REFConference22: Localized knowledge ecosystems on forced migration are complicated, but need to be understood.
Stay tuned for the results of the @IDRC_CRDI-supported project!
.@OkelloOyat with @ddadaab offering a definition of a refugee-led organization @REFHorn #REFConference22: #RLOs are sites where refugees have power to guide the agenda and can respond to the needs of refugees and/or related communities.
.@zigashanepascal responding to a question @REFHorn #REFConference22 on the role of elected refugee representatives in localized knowledge production.
Virtual contribution from Heather Alexander, @Lerrning, on the link between the work in East Africa, led by @AMADPOC, and in the Middle East, led by @ifi_aub, on localized knowledge ecosystems, supported by @IDRC_CRDI at #REFConference22.
So how do refugees define localisation? "Nothing about us without us - real accountability." ~ Toussaint Farini @REFHorn #REFConference22
How do refugees define localisation? Read what Toussaint Farini from Salama Africa - a refugee led organization based in Dzaleka refugee camp in Malawi - has to say on this. @REFHorn #REFConference22
Wonderful contribution from @OkelloOyat on the work of @ddadaab in mapping the impact of refugee-led organizations in Dadaab - part of the wider study on #RLOs in East Africa - #REFConference22.
Looking forward to seeing the final results of this exciting and timely research!
Super interesting presentation on the concept of Dagu among the Eritrean Afar refugees in Ethiopia by Kiya Gezahegne. This is an information system among Afar people for creating and sharing knowledge. Transcends formal citizenship frames. @REFHorn #REFConference22
"You can leverage on technology only when you have access to it" - the team from @Samuel_Hall_ reflects on lessons learnt from digital skill initiatives in Kenya #REFConference22 @REFHorn
Digital skills must be promoted within an enabling ecosystem - the skills w/o proper infrastructure and resources would not promote meaningful access to the labour market. Great point from @Samuel_Hall_ @REFHorn #REFConference22
@zigashanepascal says that the pandemic had the opportunity to reclaim their power in research as they became the researchers on the ground #REFConference22 @REFHorn @Lerrning
"Even though ICTs are portrayed as catalysts to mobility, they are not drivers to social change by themselves" - @Y_Haile reflects on insights from a joint paper with @PeteChonka on ICTs and mobility in the Horn of Africa @REFHorn #REFConference22
@zigashanepascal presenting his experience on conducting research during covid 19 in the refugee camps @Lerrning @REFHorn #REFConference22
Up next is a presentation from @Samuel_Hall_ on revisiting digital skills for refugees - learning from initiatives in Kenya. @REFHorn #REFConference22
"ICT is not a driver of change by itself" great point to end on the presentation on ICT and mobility in the Horn of Africa @REFHorn #REFConference22
Nuance: Yidnekachew notes that increase of access and use of ICT positively and negatively affects and is affected by mobility and migration. It can grow social networks that enable mobility or can provide information that discourages mobility. @REFHorn #REFConference22
