Vocational Training, Life Skills & Empowerment

Recognising ability. Encouraging independence.

With appropriate instruction, encouragement and a supportive environment, individuals can develop practical skills and take part more actively in daily and community life. Vocational training can also help identify interests, build work-related habits and explore suitable livelihood opportunities.

Areas the initiative may cover

• Basic daily living and self-care skills.
• Communication, teamwork and social interaction.
• Practical and vocational skill development suited to individual abilities.
• Creative activities and confidence-building opportunities.
• Work-readiness awareness and appropriate livelihood linkages.

Individual-centred development

Training activities should be adapted to each participant's interests, support requirements and pace of learning. The Foundation aims to work with families, trainers, professionals and responsible organisations to develop appropriate opportunities.

Be part of empowerment: Support initiatives that help people participate, contribute and experience a greater sense of independence.
