Hi Ibrahim!

Thanks for the comprehensive response. I see how your work is fulfilling a gap, and bridging skills with market opportunities to address that gap. The example you provided was helpful.

Good luck!

Hi Ibrahim!

Thanks for getting back to us. It'll be great to connect and talk more. What I'm interested in, is how you and your organization are addressing workforce development and growth for your participants. Our experience showed just teaching ICT skills to our beneficiaries didn't actually lead to job security. We shifted our focus to support vocational training, as opposed to solely soft skills training, to ensure greater job security. Are you facing similar challenges, and if so, how are you addressing them within your program activities?

Looking forward to hearing more!

Hello Nadia Naviwala 

Wow, what an amazing and important project! I appreciate how seriously you've taken this gendered approach to illiteracy. Our organization does vocational training for out-of-school youth and young adults in at-risk communities for child trafficking, and we have recently been revising our efforts to focus more on females. I would be interested in hearing more about the approaches you take to overcoming cultural barriers to women participating in education.

All the best,
Nicole
