New cohort of women completes vocational training and receives start-up support
Widows and young women graduated from tailoring, catering and cosmetology training — each leaving with the skills and starter tools to earn a sustainable income.
Skills change everything. Through our Technical and Vocational Education and Training programme, women and widows learn a trade they can build a livelihood on.
This cohort trained in tailoring, catering and cosmetology, complemented by sessions on basic bookkeeping, pricing and customer service so graduates can run a business, not just practise a craft.
Graduates received starter tools and materials to begin trading immediately. Follow-up mentoring continues for six months to help them stabilise and grow.
