Hi!
My name is Bláthna and I am a qualified Primary Teacher.
I am thrilled to have been given the opportunity to volunteer in Uganda with Nurture Africa this summer.
I am fundraising in order to take part in Nurture Africa's Summer Volunteer Programme 2023. I will be volunteering in schools and the local community in Nansana, Uganda. All funds raised here will go directly to Nurture Africa.
Nurture Africa is an Irish-founded Non-Governmental Organisation that works in Uganda with a targeted focus on Healthcare, Education, Child Protection and Gender Equality and Economic Empowerment through business training and micro-finance projects.
Education Enablement:
In 2017, the primary school completion rate in Uganda stood at 51% while the secondary school completion rate was 25.6%. Over 714,000 children of primary school age were not attending school. Total enrolment at tertiary level following on from completion of secondary school stood at 5% (source: UNESCO Institute). Education in Uganda is available in both government and privately operated schools, however the financial cost of school fees (in private schools), scholastic materials, uniforms and meals can result in education being inaccessible for children within families who are living in challenging circumstances. Without an access to an income, parents/guardians are most often unable to maintain their child's education.
How Nurture Africa is supporting access to formal education:
Vocational Education Project Opportunities of employment for youth in Uganda who have failed to attain a high level of formal education are extremely limited. Youth unemployment stands at 62% and 70% of the population is under the age of 30. Young people who have not gained a qualification in formal education are therefore in an extremely vulnerable position of being unable to provide for themselves as they enter early adulthood. This can result in social challenges and force young people into risky behaviour in order to provide for themselves.
How Nurture Africa is supporting youth empowerment
