In 2010, they started offering vocational training ad improving the lives of young people. With “skill up!” we can now accelerate skills development and end poverty!
Welthungerhilfe is one of the largest non-governmental aid agencies in Germany It provides integrated aid: from rapid disaster aid to construction and long-term development assistance projects in conjustion with local partner organisations. Since our foundation in 1962, we have provided 2.25 billions euros worth of funding for more than 6,600 projects in 70 countries.
Welthungerhilfe has supported kenyan development organizations since the 1970s. During all this this, we have learned how important skills, training and education are for the adancement of a nation.
That is why we created “skill up!!”.
