The city of Goma, located in the East of the Democratic Republic of Congo, is preparing to welcome an ambitious initiative: free vocational training offered to the unemployed. This news comes from the Bondeko Foundation, which is committed to setting up vocational training centers to allow young people in the region to learn a trade and prepare for their future.
Vincent Prosper Lombo Okoko, national coordinator of public vocational training institutions, stressed the importance of this opportunity for the local population. Indeed, free training is part of an approach aimed at recovering young people from street situations, by offering them the opportunity to acquire solid professional skills.
This initiative aims to combat unemployment by giving everyone the chance to learn a trade and enter the world of work. The training programs offered vary in duration, ranging from three to twelve months depending on the course chosen by the learners.
Local authorities welcomed this initiative and encouraged the population to enroll massively in these vocational training centers. This is a unique opportunity for young people in Goma and the surrounding area to prepare for their future and contribute to the development of the region.
In summary, this free vocational training represents a valuable opportunity for young people in Goma. Thanks to this commitment, the Bondeko Foundation offers local youth the opportunity to train, develop professionally and build a promising future.
