About
The Community Centre for Excellence previously known as Peace Forever is a women's refugee-led organization founded in year 2019, and finally registered on 4th October 2023 as Community Center for Excellence (CBO). It is located in the Kalobeyei settlement which is part of the Turkana West sub-county in northwest Kenya. The Community Centre for Excellence serves as a hub for educational and recreational activities in the settlement. It offers education scholarships, vocational training courses, livelihood, entrepreneurship, support health and child-friendly spaces, and skill development initiatives for both refugees and host communities. These programs are aimed at improving the livelihoods and promoting self-sufficiency among the residents. The organization is working hard to create an inclusive society where everyone, particularly women, youths, and orphaned children has equal access to education, opportunities, and a safer environment to thrive, achieve economic independence, and contribute to their communities. By addressing the unique challenges faced by these marginalized groups, we strive to provide them with the necessary tools, support, and opportunities for longer-term economic empowerment and well-being. The Community Centre for Excellence is committed to providing support and access to equal opportunities to these targeted groups with support from its partners both local and international NGOs.
