Education for change
Our mission is to use the power of education to transform the lives of refugees, their communities and the world.
Amala runs the first internationally accredited secondary level programme in the world designed with and for refugee youth, and Changemaker Courses in areas such as Peacebuilding, Ethical Leadership, and Social Entrepreneurship.
Our Programmes
Global Secondary Diploma
Amala runs the first secondary level programme and qualification for out-of-school refugees and displaced youth. The modular programme, which is internationally accredited, enables displaced youth aged 16-25 who have missed out on education to access high quality learning.
Changemaker Courses
We also offer Changemaker Courses in areas such as “Peace-building”, “Maths for Change” and “Ethical Leadership.” These courses provide transformative education to a broad group of conflict-affected youth, supporting them to cultivate the agency and life skills they need to thrive.
