Find out moreWhat our project is doing to meet this need
Our project with LYO provided 34 women with the opportunity to learn new skills in a vocational trade, business skills and life skills, which will enable them to develop a sustainable and regular income and make informed safe choices. In addition, ll young men were selected to join the project; males who are supporting women in vulnerable households where the woman herself cannot attend the training.
- The final month of the project, trainees will gain work placement experience with artisans from established businesses in the area who themselves have received top-up vocational and business skills training with LYO.
- As the project draws to a close, the participants will each received a certificate from TEVETA (the national authority which assesses and accredits vocational trainees), and a starter toolkit from Tools for Self Reliance.
