Bridging The "Digital Divide” Program
When Tech Meets Social Good
Bnevol is passionate about creating clear, measurable, and direct impact in the world. Our current focus is using our position to help elevate the greater needs of Africa, with a focus on refugee populations. And we are doing just that. Here's a quick breakdown on what and how we're doing to uphold that commitment.
Building Blocks For Long-Term Learning And Development
Bnevol provides AReL's students with a comprehensive set of technical resources: server resources, dedicated cPanel accounts for each student, and dedicated subdomains. Let's delve into each resource and how it empowers students.
Server Resources
Access to server environments is critical to learning designers and developers. Low-cost shared servers struggle in large-scale settings like AReL’s growing campus in Kakuma. Bnevol’s high-capacity servers provide the scalability and reliability needed to support students and advance AReL’s mission, at no cost to AReL or its students. Additionally, Bnevol maintains the servers and provides ongoing support to students.
cPanel Accounts
cPanel accounts equip students with essential server administration skills, from managing databases, accessing files and directories, controlling FTP access, to modifying DNS settings, and more. With dedicated cPanel accounts, students gain hands-on experience in a key industry tool. Bnevol covers the often costly cPanel licenses, ensuring access without burdening the organization.
Dedicated Subdomains
Managed dedicated subdomains empower students with a unique online presence, practical staging environments for skill application, and a public portfolio to showcase their achievements, enhancing visibility to potential employers.
Software Subscriptions
The cost of industry-grade software that practitioners use to wield and hone their skills often serve as a barrier to those aspiring to enter new fields. Lack of access to the tools means students’ are denied learning before their journeys ever begin. Bnevol sponsors multi-seat software subscriptions across numerous platforms that remove this barrier by sponsoring the cost.
Empowering Futures And Creating Access: The Convergence of Tech and Hope
Reflecting on this partnership and its broader implications, we must recognize that Africa's tech potential remains untapped. Despite the surge in innovations and the rise of formidable African tech leaders, the continent's brilliance often goes unnoticed or underutilized. By creating platforms and opportunities like these, we're uplifting individuals and echoing a message to the world about Africa's boundless potential.
