Published purpose

This project aims to enhance the capacities of 60 unemployed, vulnerable, and at-risk youths aged 15 to 25 years in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. It seeks to enhance their self-esteem, employability, and economic independence. It does so through a comprehensive approach which includes life skills, personal development, theoretical knowledge, and hands-on internship experiences. The project aims to achieve this by engaging the youth in mentorship and community service at both urban and rural centers. This project is part of the Local Engagement and Action Fund (LEAF), which supports civil society and local organizations across the Caribbean. The Funds aid them to implement initiatives that respond to local needs and advance the aims and strategic objectives of Canada’s Caribbean Regional Development Program.
