In order to help young men and women in Mozambique identify and pursue employment, either salaried or through entrepreneurship, we’ve launched Escolhas ("Choices") with partner Mozal. Formerly known as Equipando Jovens paro o Futuro, the initiative focuses on youth ages 15 to 21 in secondary schools and technical institutes in the country’s Maputo Province. Using our Passport to Success® curriculum, Escolhas is equipping these students with life and work readiness skills. Youth also will receive entrepreneurship training and market-relevant career guidance.
