2025 In Summary: Where Skills Met Opportunity
Through the Gen Kazi Program, delivered in partnership with BrighterMonday Uganda, we supported 5,547 young people with soft and employability skills training building their confidence, strengthening workplace readiness, and opening pathways to meaningful work. This effort intentionally reached those who face the greatest barriers to opportunity, including 3,603 young women, 435 persons with disabilities, and 102 internally displaced youth, ensuring that no one was left behind. Beyond employability, we nurtured entrepreneurship. 2,081 young women completed our Entrepreneurship and Small Business Course, gaining the skills, mindset, and practical tools to start and grow sustainable businesses that support their families and uplift their communities.

Eastern Career Fair 2025
The Edemel Learning Foundation (ELF), committed to accelerating youth transitions into the workforce, launched a pivotal strategic collaboration with BrighterMonday Uganda to power the mobilization for the recent Career Fair at the Islamic University in Uganda (IUIU). This partnership went beyond mere support, focusing on maximizing the fair's efficacy by leveraging BrighterMonday Uganda's market intelligence and Edemel's structured capacity-building framework; this potent combination successfully ensured both enhanced candidate preparedness and optimal engagement, resulting in a quantifiable success in closing the skills-to-market gap.
