Our impact
Tanzania
We have a longstanding programme to support vocational skills training projects in Tanzania.
Going forward we will follow a similar model to that which we have adopted in Uganda. This includes identifying and partnering with dynamic organisations that provide quality vocational training to young people in rural areas and help when they have graduated to establish their own small-scale businesses.
Further details of our exciting plans to develop our partnership and development strategy in Tanzania will be detailed in the coming months.
