Youth Empowerment & Skills Development
Northern Uganda’s youth are creative, energetic, and full of potential—but many lack opportunities to grow, contribute, or earn a decent livelihood. With high unemployment, limited access to vocational training, and social pressures, many young people are vulnerable to poverty, substance abuse, and crime.
At Access Centre Uganda, we believe that empowering youth is key to transforming entire communities. Our youth-focused programs provide:
- Vocational and technical training (e.g., tailoring, carpentry, agro-processing)
- Life skills education, including leadership, communication, and problem-solving
- Business incubation and entrepreneurship coaching
- Talent development through sports, arts, and culture
- Peer mentorship and community leadership opportunities
By equipping youth with skills, knowledge, and platforms to lead, we nurture a generation that is confident, resilient, and ready to shape their own future.
