Three routes into learning

Grassroots learning support

Book drives, literacy campaigns and resource mobilisation with under-resourced community learning centres: Change a Life Learning Center, Dandora Arts and Study Center, and Ufanisi Education Center.

AYP Mentorship

For adolescents and young people (AYP) aged 11 to 18. A structured ten-module curriculum covers sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR), mental health, career mapping, Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and life skills.

Youth Capacity Building

For ages 19 to 35: leadership and governance, financial literacy, career development, mental health awareness, climate and sustainability education, volunteerism and civic engagement. Includes the KU Chapter and the national volunteer network.

The Education pillar works towards SDG 4, with SDG 10: quality education and reduced inequalities.

Inside an AYP cohort

Adolescents work through ten modules during a school holiday cohort. The programme uses Six Thinking Hats methodology and art-based learning, separate boys' and girls' safe-space sessions, and certificate completion.

Parents and schools can ask about a cohort for a young person. Organisations can ask about hosting or underwriting delivery.
