Project: Expanding youth employment in Zimbabwe through vocational skills training

We resumed lessons on 7 January 2026, with departments fully engaged in hands-on classes. The new tools and materials provided by Kwanda are already in use across various workshops. Several departments have shared videos showcasing this progress.

I greatly appreciate the donation from your organisation. It has motivated us students and improved the standard of our training.
