Our Approach
A. Identify deserving candidates in society.
We take time to identify deserving candidates in society and take them through the program. Being a Social Enterprise, we focus on identifying talented yet less fortunate individuals who have the potential to bloom and excel with our support. Our identification process is rigorous, working with community leaders and administrators, ensuring that we select the most appropriate and deserving candidates within the society.
B. Training the Candidates
We take time to create viable and relevant curriculums that we
thereafter engage the identified candidates in the resultant
trainings. Our choice of curriculum and training is carefully
selected to ensure that it positions great possibility of impact
arising through employment or equipping the candidates with
viable skills that would be easy to commercialize and hence
provide high possibilities of economic opportunities to the
candidates as entrepreneurs or service providers.
C. Positioning the candidates for placement
Once our candidates graduate, we place them on our Ufahari
Placement App in which potential employers or individuals
requiring their skills and input would easily find them and
engage them.
D. Advocating for the rights of the candidates
We continue to advocate for the dignity and rights of our candidates and every human being in the society. We advocate for fair practice and treatment of our candidates during their work / engagement when engaged with employers. We advocate for instance that every Ufahari candidate gets paid a decent wage observing minimum wage and acceptable remuneration practices.
