THE FACTS

Why should governments welcome refugees, asylum-seekers and migrants?

We want to live in a world where people who are in grave danger have the opportunity to rebuild their lives in safety.

In a globalized world, sharing global responsibility for global issues is the fair thing to do.

Host communities benefit from the tremendous energy and drive to start new lives, which these people bring.

Welcoming people from other countries strengthens host communities by making them more diverse and flexible in our fast-changing world.

Some of the most inspiring and influential people in the arts, science, politics and technology have been refugees, asylum-seekers and migrants. They were allowed to rebuild their lives in a new country and they thrived as members of a new community.

Founders' Story

My story started in 2010 and continued until 2018 when I was working as a mentor for young leaders and entrepreneurs who were fleeing their country. In the course of my work, I noticed an under-addressed problem within our local refugee communities. Whenever I walked around our community area, I noticed majority of the refugee youth could not access basic human rights like education, medical care, moving from one place to another, as well as their struggles with unemployment and low incomes and banking services. This was the life their parents had lived, and without change, it was likely to be the life their children would also lead. Thousands of youths dropped out of the formal school system annually, a path that we could easily have found ourselves on.

Our dedication to empowering refugee youth is strongly inspired by the vast possibilities that lie ahead for them with the right support. What every refugee youth needs is the encouragement to explore their potential, create solutions, and develop the confidence necessary to take action. In the year 2018, I made the decision to establish “Refugees for Prosperity,” aimed at empowering underserved refugee youth through practical experiences that enhance their entrepreneurship, employability, and leadership skills, thus enabling them to thrive in the job market.
