One of the programs that Rwenzori information centres network (RIC-NET) implements is the community empowerment and youth ,a program that aims at empowering ,youth ,young girls and women through skills training and provision of startup kits to enable them start up their own small businesses and be able to earn an income. RIC-NET supported Rwenzori pro-life and child care foundation(PROCAF) an organization that supports skills development for vulnerable youth in Kabarole with a singer tailoring machine to enable the organization train other vulnerable young girls who were not able to complete formal education .we believe that such training helps the youth acquire skills that will improve their lives through starting up their own small businesses.
This program aims at achieving sustainable development goal 1 (end poverty in all its forms ) as it empowers youth to work and earn to improve on their incomes and end poverty .
