Help refugees in Poland find learn new, IT skills

Posted on by Marek Wróbel

So much is said about refugees and economic migrants and their lack of integration with local communities and local job markets.

That is why I would like to once again let everyone know of the initiative taken up by my friend Sanjar Hoshimi.

Sanjar, being a refugee himself, learned perfect Polish and set up CodeYourPath, an organization aimed at helping #migrants and #refugees upskill their IT competences. They run trainings and #mentorship programs for talented individuals who chose Poland as their home and who’d like to improve their #coding, #analyticalskills, and more.

If your organization values #csrinitiatives and would like to help, even non-financially, do contact me or Sanjar Hoshimi directly. Such initiatives should be praised and talked about as they contribute to the development of our job market.

Let’s all do our part in helping immigrants and refugees become valuable members of the CEE job market.

Call for IT mentors. Support ambitious young people

Let’s make a difference together!

As previously shared, Marek Wróbel from Optiveum is working with CodeYourPath Foundation to help refugees and migrants in their educational paths towards becoming IT professionals.
Now, together with the CodeYourPath’s founder Sanjar Hoshimi we are looking for volunteers to run one-off workshops or possibly take up a mentor role.

If you’re a software developer, tester, analyst, or in a similar field, this is a fantastic opportunity to give back to others, meet interesting people, and share ideas and experiences. Check out CodeYourPath’s profile and follow them on LinkedIn, or fill out the form linked here to learn more and get involved.
