specially in crisis torn places, one finds only gloom and sadness; the future looks dark and bleak, if a pedagogical approach is found where kids and youngsters can learn on mobile itself, something like Programming, which could help them in a better future, that could help many. Unfortunates those who are forced to migrate, may be can learn enough to start a new beginning.

I sincerely hope you find something that works. It is a good pursuit. Will it be limited to learning programming only? There are many other skills that will be needed after such crises. One such skill is creative writing to bring the arts back to life (other arts are needed too). Another is story telling, because the story of the events will need to be told, preferably by those who were in the midst of it, not those who wish to write the victims' history (like the colonialists did to Africa).
This is one of the first in the series. Post October, I am going to work as a waiter at one of the beach shacks here and based on my experience, I intend to write a novel and also publish my research on "How to get maximum tips, working as a waiter".

Both creative writing and story telling are very close to me, off late I have written 17 short stories, they can be read on https://medium.com/@realmccoy

the stories are numbered.
