EDUGHA Institute for Social Development is happy to be contributing to training young women under the Wee-North Project with funding from Global Affairs Canada.
Economic empowerment for young women in non-traditional industrial trades provides not only a source of livelihood for these women, but the rippling effect of this cannot be overstated.
As a partner of Alinea International, we are committed to delivering this training for young girls in Vinyl Tiles and Artificial Grass Installation. We deliver this training in a holistic approach that ensures that young women are able to move from novices to entrepreneurs as soon as practical.
Twenty girls, 10 from the northern region and 5 each from the Upper East and Upper West regions, are not only the first girls to undergo this training but actually, the first team to undergo the Vinyl Training in Northern Ghana.
The program would be a three-month-long training. The girls would go through three weeks of practical and theory sessions, which would include soft skills training to help the girls transition to the world of work. The soft skills training include knowing yourself, what is holding you back from being an Entrepreneur, Understanding the business environment in Ghana, Kaizen Principles, social media, your business, basics of marketing, etc.
This would be followed by a two-month 360 Degree Attachment, which allows them to commercialize their craft. This would involve field practice engagements, marketing and sales of the Vinyl and AstroTurf products, etc. Upon completion of this three-month program, the girls would be ready for the world of work.
EISD is partnering MODERN FLOORS to deliver the hard skills component of the training. MODERN FLOORS® is a UK-trademarked flooring brand which wholesales & retails the Best Quality Affordable Artificial Carpet Grass , AstroTurf , Vinyl(PVC/SPC) Tiles(LVT), Carpet Tiles , Adhesives and other indoor and outdoor flooring products used for both Residential & Commercial spaces.
The program is a journey we are all happy to be part of. We all have a role to play. Let’s support our young women in any way we can because they too can and they will.
