2009 – 2011 NAIROBI: CARPENTRY WORKSHOP AT BOSCO BOYS

The goal of the project was to support the education of street children and youth in Nairobi. To that end it was necessary to build and equip a carpentry workshop at the Bosco Boys centre in Nairobi, where training in this trade then began. The Salesians of Don Bosco were actively involved in the project and also delivered the carpentry instruction. The project helped to educate disadvantaged young people, to build not only their technical but also their social skills, and to improve their chances of finding a place in the labour market.

The project was supported by Slovak official development assistance SlovakAid with the sum of EUR 137,734.
