Led by our executive director Margaret Tuhumwire, we're participating in a series of national activities to mark this year's World Day Aganist Child Labor. #TogetherAgainstChildLabor The National event is underway at @KampalaSheraton #EndChildLabor

We've had breakout sessions for participants to generate feasible income generating activities they could undertake to generate more income to boost their VLSA savings & also take care of their basic needs especially paying school fees for their children. #EndChildLabor

Learning is underway at our Catering & Skilling Centre in Busia. Among the youths being trained are teenage mothers with hope that they will take on catering as an alternative source of livelihood and avoid the temptation of exploitation for labour in Gold mines #EndChilLabour

Meet some of our youth skilling program beneficiaries. Most of them are youth who were affected by the 2 years COVID19 schools lockdown. Thanks to our patners @WNCB_org @FocusesO @GirlUpUganda @GirlUpUganda @JFUganda @JOYFORCHILDREN @SaveAusNews @savechildrenug @YGCUganda

We continue to engage communities in Busia district to identify and select the most vulnerable ones to benefit from our youth skilling program to #EndChildLabor and create child labor free zones. @savechildrenug @WNCB_org 📸1. Our ED. Margaret Tuhumwire at the meeting.
