This Ability Project Officer, Digital Dadas Jobs in Kenya

The Idea

Training on Digital Literacy and Storytelling: The participants undertake the course which consists of various topics such as Digital Marketing Fundamentals, Content Marketing, Social Media Marketing, Social Media Advertising, SEO, Display Advertising, Email Marketing, Google My Business and Google Analytics. The learning process is fully online and we use several platforms to ensure all Dadas have access to the content and information.

The Skills eLearning platform is where they have access to digital marketing content. There are also weekly sessions on zoom facilitated by young women with disabilities that have already completed the course. We also have a Whatsapp group where all Dadas can share questions, information, learning resources, among others.

Mentorship on Sexual Reproductive Health Rights: During the duration of the program, the young women go through an internal mentorship process on comprehensive sexuality education, empowerment, leadership and life skills. This space provides the opportunity to have in depth conversations on employability, self esteem, sexuality among others. Internship and CyberActivism: To enhance their hands-on experience, we created an internal process where the young women rotate through

This Ability Trust’s projects, media and finance departments to gain practical tips on how these departments operate, and work within the respective departments to strengthen their projects. Additionally, the Dadas also receive hands-on training using social media for sexual reproductive health rights advocacy. The Dadas also run periodic campaigns incorporating all the skills gained during the program.
