Uganda and Africa at large have a youthful population, yet unemployment remains high. ODI invests in practical, hands-on training that gives young people the skills to succeed.

What We Do:

• Apprenticeship-based training through hubs like the Nwoya Skills Hub.
• Skills in trades such as carpentry, tailoring, welding, and ICT.
• Lifelong learning through the Nexus Adult School.
• Linking skills training to certification through DIT (Directorate of Industrial Training).
• Promoting job creation and self-employment opportunities.

Impact Goal:
Develop a skilled and competitive workforce that drives inclusive economic growth and reduces youth unemployment.
