Trainees from our training programs especially that of TYDF/WEEI skills acquisition programmes, the IDPs trained and the IT students trained are now computing favourably in their chosen craft and businesses. Our products; bead products and Ankara bags, Vaseline and Morinaga soap products etc have been accepted globally. Our trainees have grown to status of training women and Youth in a worldwide program.
Finance and training equipment has been our major debilitating constraints. This is because a lot of States and communities are yet to be covered because of financial limitations. Giving start up equipment for trainees, hiring of equipment for training, and payment of resources personnel for programmes all hinged on finance. Our facilities are limited compared to the number of women/youth who want to be trained in order to make a maximum impact in the society.
We have a mission of strengthening the economic base of women, youth and adolescent girls by removing any economic or social constraints through; - Sensitization programmes on Peaceful coexistence, HIV/AIDS, Child labour and drug abuse. - planning and execution of literacy programmes for women and school drop out girls - Vocational trainings for women, youth and under privileged. - Skills and capacity development for women and youth engaged in economic activities and hand craft.
