The Ufanisi Afrika Foundation recognizes the fact that an economically stable,empowered and educated youth strengthens the development of society. Given their numbers in the population ratios, it is important to note that if they are empowered to sustain themselves and their dependents , they would influence the development of society by acting as a potential market to the rest of society. More so, their empowerment would have a drop down effect on the rest of the population, since they constitute the bigger percentage of the population.
It is from this that the Ufanisi Afrika Foundation is interested in creating not only jobs, but also in empowering the youths with knowledge and skills to create jobs. This is done on the background of an ever-increasing unemployment rate in most of the third world as a result of the need for skilled labor in the labor market. We therefore hope to engage in sensitizing youths, both in school and out of school on how to make themselves relevant for the labor market as well as empowering them with skills that are necessary for creating their own sources of livelihood, without necessarily depending on the already existing structures of the formal labor market.
