On every chessboard, a new move brings new possibilities. ♟️ At Angelina Jolie Girls’ Boarding Primary School in Kakuma, Kenya, girls from both refugee and host communities are learning more than just the game. Through one of the school's most active clubs, they're building critical thinking skills, confidence, and lasting friendships. For students dreaming of becoming doctors, lawyers, and IT professionals, every move is part of a bigger journey toward their future. This #WorldChessDay, we celebrate the power of education, opportunity, and the simple game that's helping young minds think beyond the next move.
