Technology should be for everyone
We are a Somali non-profit working to close the digital divide and make sure no one is left behind in the digital age.
Our story
Our journey began with a simple vision: to give people the skills, tools and opportunities they need to succeed in today's world.
Somalia faces real challenges: limited infrastructure, low digital literacy and unequal access to technology. We see these challenges as opportunities to create lasting change.
Through practical training, innovation and community-driven programs, Digital Rise is helping individuals unlock their potential, businesses grow and communities thrive in an increasingly connected world.
The challenges we address
Limited infrastructure
Many communities still lack reliable internet access and devices.
Low digital literacy

Our vision
A Somalia where technology and innovation are accessible to all, fueling sustainable growth, opportunity, and a better future.
Our mission
To empower people with digital skills, promote online safety, and open doors to new opportunities through technology.
