Provide Vocational Training To Women In The Philippines
The large sector of private education in the Philippines restricts girls from working-class backgrounds from accessing higher education and decent employment. We offer vocational training in the hospitality sector, giving young women the chance to become financially independent. Our focus is divided equally between the classroom and practical work experience in the hospitality industry. As COVID-19 moves the classroom online, we are supporting our local partner to deliver learning remotely, while providing our students with the means to navigate a shifting and unfamiliar economic climate.
