Academy
Greater Action Academy works with young adult refugees. We have put together a four-tier conversational English course specifically designed for the community's needs and tailored to be delivered online. Since the inception of the academy, over 200 students have benefitted from our course. We have 30 teacher volunteers who teach online. We have students from different refugee communities like Afghanistan, Somalia, Pakistan, etc.
Education is a fundamental right of every individual. It improves one's knowledge and skills and determines the quality of person's life. Education can directly impact the chances of employment. Therefore Greater Action offer programs for the refugees to give them quality education and acquire the necessary skills to pave their way for sustainable livelihood.
