One of the goals and mission focuses of Sankore Consulting is community engagement and youth development. We use EdTech as a way to empower and engage the community.
The community outreach arm of our work is the Digital Empowerment Academy.
The Digital Empowerment Academy is digital literacy, a civic technology initiative that works to enable youth impacted by the digital divide to become savvy creators of digital content.
Youth in the DEA learn to use digital devices, applications, and coding as a tool for community advocacy using a ‘Digital Kinship’ framework.
The Digital Empowerment Academy also serves as an advocacy agency around issues of community empowerment.
