Enabel in Uganda

🚨 We wrapped up the week well at Enabel

We signed a €280,485 grant agreement with Kampala Capital City Authority to advance youth employment in Kampala metropolitan.

Implemented under the project, funded by the European Union and the Kingdom of Belgium, this partnership focuses on bridging the gap between young people’s skills and labour market demands.

At least 1,000 youth will undergo work-readiness training, gaining essential soft skills to prepare for the world of work, while a minimum of 200 will transition into employment within private companies.

This is part of a broader effort to strengthen job matching, engage employers, and expand opportunities in green and decent jobs while contributing to inclusive economic growth in Kampala. 🤝

A big step towards a stronger aquaculture sector and more opportunities for youth!

We have formalised our partnership with , the largest tilapia producer in Uganda to drive improvements across the fish value chain with a focus on the Busoga region.
This collaboration isn’t just about fish. It is about people, standards and the environment. And we have already delivered tangible results:

Creating jobs: 17 young people will gain their first work experience.
Setting standards: Elevation of food safety to meet international benchmarks.
Going green: Advancement of environmentally responsible production practices.

Part of the Initiative on Sustainable Business for Uganda, this partnership shows how working with a leading private sector player can unlock jobs, improve standards, and build a more sustainable and competitive aquaculture industry.

Children under one year should receive and complete all the Polio, Tuberculosis, Diphtheria, Hepatitis B and Measles vaccines/ immunization before reaching one year of age. Parents, caretakers, take your children to complete these mandatory vaccinations as per the immunisation schedule .

Vandaag sprak ik Enabel, onze partners op het terrein, toe. Want wat wij samen doen, is belangrijk. Omdat solidariteit niet stopt aan de grenzen. Omdat elke druppel telt.

Elke druppel telt om verandering in gang te zetten.
Elke druppel telt om geesten te doen rijpen, bij overheden en lokale partners.
Elke druppel telt om levens hier ver vandaan in een andere richting te duwen, om hoop en perspectief te bieden.

Ik kijk uit naar de verdere samenwerking in 2021. Dankzij internationale solidariteit kunnen we samen de wereld verbeteren.
