About
Kakuma Kalobeyei Refugee-led Initiatives Network is a Network of organizations led by refugees in the Kakuma Refugee Camp and Kalobeyei settlement, which advocate, empower, support, and promote collaboration among RLOs/CBO, UNHCR, Humanitarian agencies, and the government. Kakuma and Kalobeyei are both refugee camps in Kenya hosting thousands of refugees from different countries who have fled conflict, persecution, and other forms of violence in their home countries. These communities face many challenges, including limited access to education, healthcare, and employment opportunities. Despite these challenges, refugees in Kakuma and Kalobeyei have shown incredible resilience and resourcefulness, working to build a better future for themselves and their families. The Kalobeyei-Kakuma Refugee-led Initiatives Network is a platform for RLOs/CBOs to come together, share knowledge and resources, and collaborate on initiatives to help improve the lives of all refugees living in the camps. Our mission is to advocate and empower refugee-led organizations/community-based organizations in Kakuma Refugee Camp and Kalobeyei settlements, promoting collaboration and supporting initiatives to address the needs of our communities. Our vision is of a future where refugee-led organizations in Kakuma and Kalobeyei areas have the tools, resources, and support to lead their communities, foster social and economic development, and contribute positively to the region's overall growth and prosperity. Objectives To advocate for RLOs/CBOs and to increase awareness of refugee issues, locally, nationally, and internationally, ensuring they participate in decision-making processes that affect their lives. To strengthen the capacity of refugee-led organizations to lead, innovate, and address the challenges faced by the communities they serve.
