98% feel able to stand up for themselves, thanks to Life Skills. Training 68 facilitators of the Ministry of Youth in #Zimbabwe to teach Life Skills education at national #TVET centres means sustainable systemic change! Isn't that exciting?

It's been an exciting week in Mutare. 24 teachers from Magamba and Mutare Vocational Training Centres in Zim are being trained to be Life Skills Education Facilitators. They will support youths to acquire critical life skills and train youths to make informed decisions #TVET

What makes your heart sing? 💖 Last week I spent time with the hostel girls @YoungAfricaInt Moçambique. I owe so much to all the girls who stayed close when we lived at the YA Centres. Their needs, vulnerability and resilience continue to inspire our #youth programmes today. ✨

The largest Dutch newspaper @De_Telegraaf reported on the impact of 25 years @YoungAfricaInt. "A feel-good story from Zimbabwe: Started with $1,500, 3 questions and 2 people, the founders built an education empire in Africa". @NLinZimbabwe @PostcodeLoterij @DutchMFA
