Goal:
The essence of this project is to set up a job opportunity in collaboration with street youths in order to create a sustainable future for them. This will be achieved by doing intensive research in this field: searching for youths that are motivated, creating a needs assessment for these youths, creating a collaborative business plan and if possible provide the financial means to start up the business.
The business will be producing the wooden belts, seen on the picture, that will be sold through collaboration with HABA HABA, a start-up company in the Netherlands.
Value:
Equal opportunities and sustainability in a socio-economic sense are the two values that drive our initiative. We highly value a bottom-up development approach. It is therefore important that the company in Kenya runs separately from the company in Europe to avoid disappointments and dependencies.
