Education and Training Programme

The Education and Training Programme is comprised of two sub-programmes: the Undugu Basic Education Programme (UBEP) and the Informal Skills Training Programme (ISTP).

The Undugu Basic Education Programme (UBEP) is a four–year non–formal education programme catering to marginalized children unable to pursue formal education, usually, due to inability to access it because of abject poverty. The programme targets children of 12 years and above and is being implemented in Kibera, Pumwani, Mathare and Ngomongo informal settlements. The current programme capacity stands at 850 learners.

The Informal Skills Training Programme (ISTP) provides opportunities for children and youth, including graduates of UBEP, to acquire technical skills to enable them become self–reliant. Currently, emphasis is being put on building the capacity of community based organizations (CBOs) to become effective partners in the implementation of the training programme at their level, with a view to enabling the programme to reach more deserving cases. While UBEP is implemented in Nairobi only, ISTP is being implemented in Nairobi, Western and Eastern Kenya.
