Music as a Strategy of Youth Resilience in Dadaab Refugee Camp Kenya
Research on Humanities and Social Sciences
Attributed extracts from the research record
“Music and dance also helps to enhance a message of hope, while providing useful education.”
“music and dance provides an important opportunity for the sharing of knowledge networks. The elders sing not only to provide entertainment, but also to entrench cultural values in their societies through music and dance.”
“ On the other hand, the youth hopes and ambitions are carried through their songs and dances.”
“Their determination to keep track of hip hop, rap and reggae music, as well as their mode of dressing demonstrates that youth have a common identity with youths well beyond the refugee camps. Music and dance also helps to enhance a message of hope, while providing useful education.”
