In 2017 Gua Africa took My Start project under its charity umbrella to facilitate creative art programming at Kakuma refugee camp. We both believe that creative learning is integral to every young person’s social and emotional development, but in particular to those who have been isolated from mainstream education and affected by conflict and trauma.
My Start is an arts project, which tackles the subject of conflict and displacement in a truly unique way; offering high quality creative education to young refugees and delivering exceptional learning resources to students in the UK.
The programme runs both in Kakuma Refugee camp and across schools in the UK, creating exceptional educational workshops and resources as well as hosting events and exhibitions.
