Monday is #WorldRefugeeDay but with over 89 million forcibly displaced people worldwide, taking action for one day is not enough. We believe everyone deserves the right to work and are dedicated to helping refugees build their futures every day.
We are proud to announce a partnership with the @EU_Commission to train 1,790 East Jerusalem youth under the SMILE project! Youth will get soft, technical & entrepreneurship skills and enter the labour market. We can't wait to get started! @EFEPalestine@EUpalestinians
We are excited to share that @nsweid has joined the board of directors of @EFE_Global! With 65% of MENA's population under 30 years of age and a regional unemployment rate of 30%, the region is one of the hardest places on the planet for youth to get their first job.
Join us for a talk on tech's role in MENA's economic future and how the women of the region can be best prepared for the changes. The panel will be moderated by our friends at @ABANAnews and will include leading female voices in the region!

Only 18% of women in the Arab world participate in the labor force. Leaving women on the sidelines costs the MENA region over half a trillion dollars a year. EFE has helped more than 70,000 women enter the world of work.
