Sustainable Development

Major group affiliation:
  • Children and youth
Involvement in UN Partnerships: Yes
If yes, explain in detail: We are currently partnering with ILO through the Youth Entrepreneurship Facility to train and empower the youth on how to create environmentally friendly enterprises that provide employment for themselves and their peers. We have jointly developed curriculum that we use for training our trainers who are university students with an interest of working with communities. Upon successful completion of the training the trainers go to the different schools to mentor the youth on how to green their enterprises or initiate green businesses. So far, we have a national award that the different youth enterprises compete for and that has served as a great motivator in the youth engaging on sustainable development on the area of enterprise.
Affiliation with other organizations: We have on-going partnerships with AIESEC and SIFE which are University student bodies with an interest on enterprise, business and economics.
