Free Education for Rural Children & Youth in Ghana

Introduction

The Jewelry Design and Engineering Program continues to demonstrate its transformative power in shaping the future of young people in Ghana. Conceived and led by the Impact Youth Foundation, and developed in strategic partnership with Goldpot Jewelry and the Commission for Technical and Vocational Education and Training (CTVET), the program is designed to bridge the gap between education and employment in the jewelry sector. By combining technical training, industry mentorship, and direct career pathways, we are empowering young people from rural communities to build sustainable livelihoods.
