This is how Fairphone is supporting KLABU Sports Clubhouses
Fairphone has partnered with KLABU to supply refurbished devices to refugee camp clubhouses in Mauritania and Kenya, enabling coordination, content creation, and community engagement.
Fairphone has partnered with the non-profit KLABU to provide refurbished devices to clubhouses in the M’bera Refugee Camp in Mauritania and the Kalobeyei Refugee Settlement in Kenya. These clubhouses serve as community hubs offering sports, Wi-Fi, and cultural activities. The devices are used by local staff to manage schedules, communicate, and document activities, supporting daily operations and long-term planning.
A clubhouse team member in Kenya described how the Fairphone helps organize work tasks, set reminders, and maintain connections with colleagues in Amsterdam and family in Ethiopia. The device is used throughout the day for communication, social media, and entertainment, streamlining personal and professional responsibilities. The reliability of the phone has made it an essential tool for managing a busy schedule.
In Mauritania, a KLABU Content Creator relies on the Fairphone to document community stories, capture cultural moments, and share them internationally. The device’s camera and video capabilities enable the creation of engaging content, while messaging apps facilitate coordination with team members. The long battery life allows for extended use without frequent charging, supporting continuous content production and remote communication.
Fairphone emphasizes that its products are assembled under fair labor conditions, contrasting with industry practices that often prioritize cost reduction. The partnership with KLABU reflects Fairphone’s commitment to ethical electronics, providing durable, refurbished devices that support both operational needs and community storytelling in refugee settings.
