Summary

In the North-west region of Cameroon, the school's drop -out rate is high which means that many young men and women do not complete their education and do not have the necessary skills to generate substantial income for their families. CAMAAY has created 7 proposals that aim to create vocational training in Hairdressing, Cooking, Metalwork, Tailoring, Mechanics, Agriculture, and Woodworking. The Cameronian youth can attend one of these workshops and get skills to become economically independent.

Challenge

A lot of young people living in Cameroon are in vulnerable situations that put in risk their development and future. Some dropouts off school are really high leaving the youth with no skills and education.However many positives do exist and it is the intent of this program to identify and implement a program that can provide significant areas of opportunity to develop individualized business prospects within the industries mentioned above. We need your help to tackle this challenge.

Solution

Even a small collaboration you can support this project, which aims to improve youth opportunity for self-employment by enhancing their skills and empower marginalized youth, young women who became teenage mothers and school drops out, and also young men, that were affected by the Anglophone crisis. By training the youth in Hairdressing and Beauty; Cooking and Pastry; Metalwork and Weathering; Tailoring; Mechanics and bike repairs; Agriculture; or Woodworking, we can provide them with a skill.

Long-Term Impact
