Activities
Education
Education is a human right… Believing in Education to be the key to change the world, VPeace provides access to quality education and supports disadvantaged groups (Orphans, street children, disabled, and child mothers) to get the education to lead a purposeful life with hope.
Many refugees face significant challenges in securing livelihoods due to limited access to resources, education and employment opportunities. The High Impact Incubator Program HIIP at VPeace bridges the gaps by providing entrepreneurship training, mentorship and support to participants to create and manage their own businesses in order to enhance economic self-reliance among youth refugees and host communities.
Livelihood
At Volunteer for Peace, we engage refugee women in Women’s Peace Circles_ WPC to help women affected by Gender-Based Violence, limited access to economic opportunities and marginalized in decision making processes to share experiences, learn peace building skills, engage in crafts work to boost their income and advocate for their rights.
To help them boost their economic potentials, we support them unleash their potential business ideas.
GENDER EMPOWERMENT
As an Initiative promoting peace, we integrate Boys in the fight against gender based violence and promote Gender equality, VPeace believes that Boys needs to be mentored for a violence free World. Our aim in this project is to discourage the belief that sees a BOY CHILD as self-resilient able to cope up with life changing situations yet he needs guidance, support and consideration. Support Boys to promote men of courage, conscience and character to live with integrity, protect and provide for their families.
Young Boys and Girls are to be guided and empowered to make it to a peaceful world purposely because they are potential leaders of tomorrow.
