I am honoured to have completed Java and SQL upskilling training from Develhope and Refactory Academy by competent instructors. I also met a team of young and brilliant minds and most impeccable people ever. Thanks to Talent Beyond Boundaries , UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency and FCA for making this experience possible and exciting. Additionally, I can speak a new language! Diaconia Valdese Thank you for the wonderful lessons.

The discussions around emerging threats, best practices, and innovative solutions in the cybersecurity landscape were incredibly valuable. It’s inspiring to see such collaboration aimed at strengthening our digital infrastructure and safeguarding our information.

Looking forward to applying these insights in my work and contributing to a more secure digital future. #Cybersecurity #MilimaSecurity #LiquidTechnologies #MinistryOfICT #NITA #DigitalSafety
