Exciting news! Our Country Director, Sheila Ampumuza will present at the Lavazza Foundation`s 20th-anniversary celebration on September 30th.

Sheila`s presentation, titled "Youth in Coffee: Taking the Reins of the Future," will delve into the crucial role young people play in the coffee industry, using the Ujana Coffee Project as an example.

For the past 5 years, Sawa World with the support of the Lavazza Foundation has directly trained over 900 youth coffee farmers from seven districts in Central Uganda in 20 income-generating skills that can boost their livelihoods, improve their coffee production, and motivate them to stay farming.

We wrapped the week on an exciting note when we hosted five youth at the Sawa World Solution Centre who we trained in easy-to-start local income skills under the Community Efforts for Child Empowerment (CECE) Entrepreneurship and Business Development program in Wakiso District.

These youth who recently started a microbusiness in notebook making, were taken on a study visit to an established entrepreneur’s workstation to gain valuable insights into the day-to-day operations of the notebook-making business, from production to sales.

We are confident that the knowledge gained will guide them through expanding their microbusiness and create a ripple effect of inspiration and knowledge sharing among their peers.

#ImpactWednesday In 2022, Norah, a young woman from Buikwe District, Central Uganda attended a Sawa World skills training in search of a solution to supplement her income from hawking and selling women`s clothes that wasn`t sufficient to meet her needs and those of her family.

From the training, she learned and developed an interest in the skill of making African handmade sandals. Given the simplicity of the skill, the availability of materials, and the affordable startup capital required, Norah used her savings of Ugx 200,000 (USD 80.64)to start a micro-business a few months after the training.

The start was not smooth, she encountered numerous challenges the main one being fluctuating prices of materials which raised her business expenses, however, Norah persisted in keeping her business afloat by reinvesting her initial income into the business.

In three months, Norah set up a small stall by the highway where she displays the sandals she makes, she now earns at least Ugx 50,000 (USD 13.44) from her business per week. This supplements her income from her other business and has eased the financial burden she faced earlier. Norah can now afford to provide necessities for herself, and her children.

This transformation has brought Norah joy and restored her hope and confidence in her dream of owning a machine that sews shoes. Inspired by Norah`s story? Visit https://sawaworld.org/ to learn a Sawa World local income skill.
