Stichting Na’amal equips forcibly displaced people with the skills, support, and opportunities to earn a living in the global digital economy — with transparency, unpaid board governance, and programmes funded project by project.
Too many forcibly displaced people are pushed into informal work in precarious conditions. Na’amal exists because the digital labour market offers another route — one that treats people as workers with agency, not as a problem to manage.
We focus on the human skills remote work demands, partner with others for digital skills training, and then help learners pursue remote jobs that travel with them.
Both soft skills and digital skills are required for work in the digital economy. The Foundation holds the space where those two meet.
We train refugees and other underrepresented communities in the soft skills the digital workplace asks for — communication, collaboration, and the habits that make remote work stick.
We collaborate with organisations that teach the technical curriculum, so learners leave with both the craft and the workplace readiness employers need.
Training is not the finish line. After programmes end, we support learners as they pursue remote roles in the global digital economy.
The Board stewards Stichting Na’amal. Members serve unpaid; programme staff are hired project by project, according to the grants awarded.

Every grant and every partnership helps someone move from precarious informal work into dignified remote employment.
