"The Story of a Resilient Refugee Entrepreneur" with Adhieu Achuil

Season 8 Episode 9

In today’s episode, we embark on a remarkable journey to a refugee camp that showcases the power of resilience and entrepreneurship.

Our Host visited Dadaab Refugee Camp last month and had the privilege of meeting extraordinary women who defied all odds and embraced entrepreneurship as a means to rebuild their lives. Their determination, creativity, and unwavering spirit left an indelible mark on her.

Dadaab is Africa’s first and largest refugee camp which is now 32 years old. More than 300,000 refugees now live in the camp in Kenya originally intended for 90,000, according to ⁠UNHCR⁠. She celebrated World Refugee Day, where she also met U.N.H.C.R. colleagues.

She discussed and delved into the stories of these remarkable female entrepreneurs like Adhieu Achuil, who have transformed adversity into opportunity. From handcrafted goods to innovative services, from crushing nuts into hair shampoos and oils, they have unleashed their entrepreneurial talents to not only sustain themselves but also uplift their communities.

Their stories will inspire you, challenge your perceptions, and ignite a sense of hope and possibility like they did to our host.

Join us as we uncover the triumphs and tribulations of these resilient women, discover the transformative Power of entrepreneurship, and gain a deeper understanding of the human spirit’s incredible ability to thrive even in the face of unimaginable circumstances.

We are a small Team dedicated to improving the world by creating inspiring content for people who want to do better and be better.
