The Krowor Municipal Assembly, through the Krowor Business Advisory Centre (GEA–Nungua BAC), has empowered 95 young people with practical vocational and entrepreneurial skills under the GEA–Mastercard Foundation Business in a Box (BizBox) Project.
The four-day training, held from the 8th to 11th September, 2026 at the Live Worship Centre, Nungua, focused on Make-up Artistry and Batik Tie & Dye, complemented by business development, entrepreneurship and mindset transformation sessions designed to prepare participants for self-employment and sustainable livelihoods.
The beneficiaries comprised 48 young women trained in Make-up Artistry, while 47 youth – 32 females and 15 males – received training in Batik Tie & Dye.
The initiative forms part of a broader commitment to youth empowerment, skills development, entrepreneurship and inclusive local economic development, while supporting broader national efforts to create sustainable economic opportunities for young people.
Empowering young people with skills today. Building sustainable livelihoods for tomorrow.
