Business Digital Services Programme
As part of our digital services programme, 30 youth
are currently attending training for coding, robotics
and drone piloting. We believe that these skills will
enable them to open their own businesses or find
employment in related sectors.
Garment Making Project
Nineteen youth successfully completed the garment
making course and received starter kits to enable
them to start creating products, inputs in making PPE
and to start trading.
Business Development Programme
In order to increase access to market and
opportunities in our entrepreneurship programmes,
we successfully hosted a pop-up market on 26

small business development skills programme. The
programme was hosted in partnership with the Small
Enterprise Development Agency (SEDA), the National
Youth Development Agency (NYDA) and Newcastle
