CDF skills have continued to change the lives of the people in Chitambo District, resonating well with the purpose of the component.
Emmy Kaira (Mrs) described the decision to undergo tailoring and designing training at the Kabwe Institute in 2023 as the best decision of her life. She recalled how other people made fun of her, saying that the course she chose was old fashioned. After completion, she later set up a tailoring workshop opposite Mukando Boarding Car Park.
“I’m now able to contribute because business has been good so far,” she said. She encouraged fellow women to take up these opportunities created by the government to reduce reliance on men for support.
The local authority is delighted to witness the impact the CDF skills component is making. The skills component is designed to create self-employed youths after training. Further, we encourage women, especially the youths, to take this opportunity and obtain training qualifications with life changing skills that will change their lives.
