The Seeding Futuresprogram operates at two levels; We focus on building resilience and green economy skills in individuals and we work systemically through mapping and stimulating the local green economy with the aim to understanding the career pathways for our Alumni.
The last month of our program includes a Job Placement with a local green enterprise, these placements are brokered with a skills and aptitude fit and participants apply for Job Placement and gain confidence in the job application process.
The Job Placements are mutually beneficial, students get hands of experience of working in a enterprise and our green economy partners benefit from capacitated human capital and the opportunity to trial interns before employment.
The program stimulates the local green economy with 16 000 hours per year and has an employment rate of 60%. We have also incubated 30 Alumni enterprises this year.
We are now going to boost our Alumni into the job market and green economy where the multiplier impacts will take hold.
Look out for news about our plans for 2023 intake.
