EcoGreen Oases Legacy initiative tackles unemployment and climate challenges with Green Skills Training in Tamale
EcoGreen Oases Legacy is making strides in addressing youth unemployment and environmental challenges in Northern Ghana following the successful completion of the Green Skills Training Programme in Tamale. The three-day training was held from April 6 to 8 at the Bagabaga College of Education. The training equipped 113 beneficiaries with practical skills in recycling, upcycling, and green entrepreneurship aimed at promoting sustainable livelihoods.
Mr. Mahamudu Haruna, the Regional Budget Analyst, delivering remarks on behalf of the Northern Regional Minister, Hon Ali Adolf John, described the initiative as a timely and impactful response to the twin challenges of unemployment and environmental degradation. Queen Titiaka emphasized that the initiative goes beyond skills training to building a movement of empowered individuals capable of driving change within their communities. Queen Titiaka noted that "This programme is about empowering people to take control of their future, to turn challenges into opportunities, and to become agents of change".
EcoGreen Oases Legacy supported the best-performing team with training materials and seed capital. Adam Suad Malbiyara was specially recognised for designing a sofa and storage unit using discarded car tyres and other waste materials. Prince A. A.
