“We are determined to make available more resources through training and re-training of more youths,while creating enabling environment for all prospective partners to operate effectively in line with goal 17 of the SGD”.

As we are committed to sustainable youth employment ,this 2-day capacity building training is intended to unlock and re-invent your creative potential and provide another opportunity for you to either start or scale up your existing businesses” .
