L'Esperienza

The Peace for Development Refugees Initiative (PDRI) is seeking a dedicated volunteer, preferably from the United States of America, to serve as a Liaison Officer supporting our Peace Center Project. While a U.S. volunteer is highly encouraged due to the strong engagement needed with the U.S. Embassy in Nairobi, qualified volunteers from other continents outside Africa are also welcome to apply.

Volunteering with PDRI was an amazing experience that I can highly recommend! The staff is always making sure that I felt good and safe. Even though the project have a lot of challenges and most of the time I felt really helpless, everyone gave me the feeling that I really made an impact with my work! People were constantly so thankful for our work at PDRI! PDRI is also a very transparent Organisation with a huge impact on their communities. After four weeks I made friends and learned so much that I definitely want to come back! Thank you PDRI!

Volunteering with PDRI was an eye-opening, positive and transformative experience. I was welcomed with open arms by Pascal and the PDRI team, they did everything they could to make me feel safe and welcome. Their kindness and generosity is something I will never forget. The living conditions in Kakuma are not always easy: be aware of that and do your research beforehand. Overall even as a woman solo traveller, I felt safe in Kakuma town and camp. I'd definitely recommend volunteering with PDRI, feel free to reach out with questions!

Thank You, Victoria Stricker

A big thank you to Victoria Stricker for her amazing volunteer work with PDRI in Kakuma. She trained 26 people in social media, supported vulnerable groups, and visited many of our key programs.

Victoria’s time with us brought hope, skills, and inspiration to the community. We’re so grateful for her support especially the fundraising she did for the construction of our ECDE classroom.

We highly recommend Victoria for any other future opportunity.

I had a very positive experience collaborating with PDRI. I worked with PDRI in their efforts to mediate, train and promote the project among the residents of Kakuma Camp. Throughout this experience, PDRI was by my side providing support and making sure I felt safe. Pascal and the rest of the team are really dedicated and hardworking and I was grateful for all they do. They promote peacebuilding, education for the youth in the camp, IT skills, social media, small business support, etc. I highly recommend volunteering with PDRI and encourage anyone who might be interested to contact the organisation.

Enzo led workshops for community leaders, youth, women, and PDRI members, teaching conflict resolution and mediation. His work helped local leaders prepare to handle peace challenges. Enzo also played a key role in resolving a conflict between two communities by using his negotiation skills to bring them together. Enzo’s dedication, empathy, and professionalism made a positive impact on everyone he worked with. He was a great mentor and leader. I highly recommend him for future opportunities.

Working in Kakuma has definitely been one of the most transformative experiences of my life, and there could not have been a better organization than PDRI to work with. However, keep in mind that Kakuma is a challenging environment, and since PDRI is a grassroots organization run by local the project, it does not have the same level of leverage or resources as a larger NGO. Nevertheless, the team is fantastic and goes out of its way to ensure that you can adjust to the environment and make a real impact on the community For a peak into how the place/project could be: Check www.edutechrefuge.com

As it was difficult to handle the issue of WIFI and electricity, we opted that students pay but the challenge is that some of them drop out due to lack of school fees. The number of the students reduced when we started charging. We didn’t organize the graduation for the second promotion and we are waiting for the completion of the 3rd one for the graduation. On another hand, the Lab has been a valuable space as it is also used as venue for trainings and meetings beyond the ICT hours. Thanks.

Volunteering in Kakuma is not for the fainthearted, but so worth it. There's heat, dust and life overall is much less comfortable than at your home. However, volunteering with PDRI has been truly inspiring for me (tip: I made a 6 min film about it!). The members will undoubtedly welcome you with open arms. I've met so many interesting people in this multicultural environment. The PDRI team will take good care of you in terms of safety and giving you information about how to get to Kakuma and how to behave once you're there. It's good to know that you will sleep in Kakuma town, not in the camp.

We have witnessed the valuable work of Laura Spoor, a brave female who has implemented various activities with PDRI with positive impacts in Kakuma refugee camp. She was involved in various activities including peace building, women empowerment and ECD. In peace building she visited all the community leaders and helped us to develop our project of PDRI Peace Center by involving also women in the project for inclusivity. Regarding women empowerment, she organized meetings with women leaders from different communities in order to remind them about what they have to do or initiate in order to be self-reliant and make their lives better. The activity of ECD within PDRI has improved since Laura started volunteering with PDRI. Not only because of facilitating but also because she bought necessary materials so that the activity is conducted properly. She was close to the children. These children are the most affected due to Laura's departure and it has been painful to them as they missed her. Laura has been the first person and volunteer that has organized a fundraising campaign for PDRI that has enabled us today to implement activities in terms of logistics. All PDRI members as well as the entire Kakuma refugee camp will remember Laura for what she did.
