Livelihood & Life Skills for Impoverished Youth
Organization information
Shauri Yako Community Youth Support Centre (SYSC)
Location: Nyeri, Kenya
Summary
Kenya has one of the world's largest youth populations - more than 75% of its 45 million residents are under 30. Of these, 14% are unemployed and about 25% are largely underemployed. With only 1 in 10 Kenyans attending university, most lack job skills. This project will provide technical job skills, entrepreneurial and computer skills training, health education and life skills support to youth from the informal settlements in Nyeri. Our goal is to help youth lift themselves from poverty.
