Job training for 100 girls in Sierra Leone slums

Organization information

Transform Africa

Location: London, United Kingdom

Summary

The project aims to provide vocational training for 100 teenage mothers in eastern Freetown slums in Sierra Leone. They have no sources of livelihoods due to illiteracy, stigma, poverty, the decades-long war, and lack of opportunities. The project will provide them training in various marketable vocational skills, childcare, and business support to help them become self-employed. As a result they will become economically empowered and able to support their children and relatives.
