Projects
1. Training
Solar and Wireman Skills Training
This project aimed to enhance access to vocational skills among underserved communities. We have trained 15 youths on solar installation and wireman skills (Grade 3 level), who have delivered Tier 2 training to 150 youths in Kakuma refugee camp. Upon completion, 25 trainees out of 150 were facilitated to sit for the NITA accreditation exam, building a pipeline of certified technicians for clean energy solutions in marginalized regions.
Training on Data Annotation
We have trained more than 100 youth, women, and refugees on data labeling for AI training positioning them better to earn from AI Training jobs.
Training refugee and host-community business owners on digital marketing under PROSEET by GIZ.
We have trained 2 cohorts in Kakuma and Lokichogio on digital marketing. This project is aimed at empowering
refugee and host-community business owners to build an online presence and sell their products and services online.
This is part of the PROSEET project by GIZ.
ProSEET (Promoting Employability and Entrepreneurship in Turkana West) is a GIZ Kenya program, funded by Germany (BMZ), that empowers refugees and host communities in Kenya (especially Kakuma/Turkana) with business skills, financial literacy, mentorship, and access to finance to boost local economies, launch new businesses, and create jobs, focusing on MSMEs (Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises).
2. Transitioning
Data Labeling for AI trainees
After training, we have onboarded and placed more than 200 data labeling for AI trainees to different DigiTalanta’s
AI training projects. We successfully placed them carrying out decent and dignified work.
Solar and Wireman Skills Trainees

We continue to provide post-training support to the trainees to make sure there’s a smooth transition from training to implementation
and ultimately, contribute to the achievement of the PROSEET project goals
3. AI Training
Slow-motion Video Data Labeling for AI
The DigiTalanta team successfully completed a large-scale annotation project, delivering high-quality annotations for a vast dataset. The project involved labeling 2,000,000 data points, requiring meticulous attention to detail and a strong understanding of the guidelines. Its objective was to build and evaluate a system that detects whether a video is in slow motion. A total of 100 annotators worked on this project for about three months, and we disbursed over 1 million Kenya Shillings to them.
Anime Video Data Labeling for AI
The DigiTalanta team completed an anime video labeling project for an Asian client, labeling more than 1,200,000 animation videos to improve the client’s AI model output quality. Fifty annotators participated, and we disbursed over 500,000 Kenya Shillings within one month.
