Skills for Change
This is a grassroots capacity building and enterprise development initiative under Einstein Rising. Through it, we are working to tackle unemployment and underemployment amongst Ugandans living in the most deprived conditions in the country. We provide free accredited training and mentoring to enable people to develop their skills and build confidence and knowledge in order to start their own business or transition into paid employment.
Tailoring
We want to offer vulnerable women (single mothers with able-bodied and disabled children, widows etc) the opportunity to choose a better life for themselves and their children. We provide them with handicraft training opportunities to enable them to have a chance to work and gain income for their well-being. We work with reusable materials and teach the women to make sellable products like reusable diaper pants and sanitary pads
Responsible Parenting
Through this project we provide responsible parenting sessions where parents are introduced to different types of birth control devices.
The sessions are organized in schools and communities and taught by a local nurse spon.
The Safe Water Project
Even tap water is not safe and every year, many young children under the age of 5 pass on from
drinking contaminated water. By offering a water filter, children will have a better chance of
survival.
Malaika4wc will be sponsoring the first water filter for women/parents in need of them, to encourage the need for safe water
