The Role of Vocational Training in Empowering Vulnerable Groups
Education is not just about academics—it’s about gaining skills that lead to independence. At Sikia Foundation, we equip vulnerable groups, including deaf individuals, refugees, and albinos, with vocational training to secure sustainable careers.
Skills Offered at Sikia Foundation
- Carpentry: Teaching woodworking and furniture making.
- Hospitality & Tourism: Training in restaurant service, catering, and hotel management.
- Apiary (Beekeeping): Educating participants on honey production and business.
- Arts & Crafts: Developing skills in jewelry-making, pottery, and textile design.
Why Vocational Training Matters
- Provides Financial Independence – Skills training allows individuals to earn a living and support their families.
- Breaks Cycles of Poverty – Many marginalized groups lack formal education, making vocational training an accessible alternative.
- Promotes Social Integration – Training programs build self-esteem and encourage interaction within the community.
Conclusion
By investing in practical skills, we empower vulnerable individuals to become self-sufficient and respected members of society.
