Removing Dis from Ability – ABLE YOUTH!
Report
November 2023 – January 2024
INTRODUCTION: During the period of November 2023 to January 2024, our project achieved its goal of training and empowering 30 youths in Beehive Components, Honey Production, and Money Management. We owe immense gratitude to the unwavering support of generous donors, whose contributions were pivotal in realizing this milestone. However, our commitment extends beyond this achievement. We are dedicated to seeking further funding to ensure sustained support for 280 youth with disabilities residing in Tavush Marz. This support will enable them to pursue sustainable livelihoods and independent living within their communities. It's important to note that out of the mentioned number, 90 are young women and men forcibly displaced from Artsakh.
PROJECT ACHIEVEMENTS:
• Conducted a two-month hands-on training course for 30 youths with disabilities in remote villages of Tavush, covering Beehive Components, Honey Production, Packaging/Honey Processing, Marketing/Pricing, and Management.
•Incorporated practical elements into most training sessions under expert supervision at hive locations, facilitating experiential learning.
• Provided comprehensive knowledge and skills in beekeeping, including working with bees, maintaining honey quality, separating honey from beeswax, rendering beeswax, secondary products, manufacturing and making beekeeping clothes and equipment.
• Inspired young men and women with disabilities to collective consider starting a business leveraging knowledge.
