REACT

In January 2020, MIT ReACT celebrated the graduation of the second cohort with a livestreaming virtual ceremony, at the time unable to predict how important cultivating community in online spaces would be. When the COVID-19 pandemic forced education around the world to shift into virtual spaces, ReACT's approach to facilitating learning in crisis was tested. In response to this challenge, the MIT ReACT CDS program became an entirely virtual experience, enabling us to offer transformative programming to refugees and migrants anywhere in the world... During these past years, ReACT has established 7 global hubs in Jordan, Uganda, Afghanistan, Greece, Uruguay, United States and Colombia, which represent clusters of learners from 29 different countries... MIT ReACT is brought to different parts of the world thanks to our financial supporters and advisors, who believe that education and workforce development is the best tool to help upskill communities worldwide.
