Description
Yoma is a free digital platform that connects young people to opportunities to learn, make an impact, and earn along the way. Through the Yo-ID wallet, users' completed courses, challenges, and projects become verified digital credentials that serve as secure proof of skills and achievements, portable across organisations and platforms. The platform partners with local opportunity providers to keep content relevant and is currently available in five languages, with plans to expand. As users learn and complete opportunities, they can earn digital tokens that can be cashed out or redeemed in the Yoma marketplace for items like airtime, data, and grocery vouchers. Developed by UNICEF, partners, and young Africans, Yoma is active in 105 countries, has offered more than 8,790 opportunities, created more than 818k YoIDs, verified 559k credentials, and works with 50+ global and local partners. It primarily serves young people seeking skills development, employability, and career opportunities.
