Why youth empowerment matters
Young people face high unemployment and limited access to practical experience. With targeted coaching and safe spaces to learn, they become community problem-solvers and small business owners.
Our approach blends life skills, technical training, and mentorship so youth can earn, lead, and contribute to resilient local economies.
Youth empowerment tracks include:
- Entrepreneurship, digital literacy, and financial planning workshops.
- Green skills: regenerative agriculture, nursery management, and waste-to-value.
- Mentorship, apprenticeships, and service projects that build real-world experience.
