💙 Thank you to everyone who contributed to Abdoulaye's learning journey, to Jesuit Refugee Service Malta for supporting him in so many ways, and the EPALE - Adult Learning in Europe assessors for recognising and rewarding his achievements.

💪🏿 This recognition is incredibly well-deserved. Abdoulaye's commitment to his studies at MCAST and his drive to succeed against all odds is truly inspirational to us all. Being recognised on a national level by EPALE Malta is an honour that highlights his outstanding achievements.

This learning opportunity received funding from Erasmus+ & the Funding Scheme to Deliver Non-formal Learning Opportunities for Adults in Malta & Gozo, administered by the Directorate for Lifelong Learning and Employability within the Ministry for Education, Sport, Youth, Research and Innovation.

💙 In addition, 100% asked for more classes with our amazing specialist educator Tonya Lehtinen from The VX-Foundry!
