Youth empowerment & Livelihood
The Youth Empowerment and Livelihood Program is designed to equip marginalized youth, refugees, host community members, and orphans with practical knowledge, and entrepreneurial opportunities that enable them to become self-reliant, innovative, and economically independent. The program seeks to address unemployment, poverty, and limited access to skills development by providing pathways to sustainable livelihoods and decent work.
Beyond technical skills training, the program provides mentorship, coaching, and life-skills development through peer-to-peer learning workshops, seminars, and community engagement activities. Participants are guided by experienced mentors and successful entrepreneurs who inspire them to build confidence, develop leadership abilities, make informed career choices, and become positive role models within their communities.

Through this initiative, Amkeni Foundation envisions empowered young people who possess the confidence, skills, and resources needed to secure meaningful employment, create businesses, support their families, and become agents of positive change within their communities.
We believe that empowering youth today is an investment in stronger, more resilient, and more prosperous communities tomorrow.
