Boulevard du 30 Juin, Arret VodaCom, Gombe Division, Kinshasa.
More than 75% of the population in the Democratic Republic of Congo is composed of young people from 15 to 45 years Old. They are from poor families and as such do not access to education and health services. Most of them are living in extreme poverty, which is why the reduction of poverty is among our key activities.
Our programs range from the reform of education and health sectors to make them youth friendly and introduce services which take care of the specific needs of young people, in education we are promoting skills development, entrepreneurship, Civic Education and Carrier Guidance, business trainings and Income Generating Activities among others. We have also put in place transitional education and Functional Adults Literacy among others.
On top of existing international days, we shall put in place a particular day looking on young people, Equator Province will be our headquarters and Patrice Lumumba will be the symbol for all our youth activities.
In health sectors we are advocating for inclusive health services focusing of HIV/AIDs, Sexual and Reproductive Health Rights, Safe Abortion Services and Mental Health among others.
