Many young single mothers (YSM) in Rwanda and Kenya are dropped out of school & placed in a vulnerable condition. Resuming their studies is not compatible with childcaring and generate income.

To foster collaboration and knowledge exchange among stakeholders, to support the holistic development of YSM in Rwanda and Kenya to escalate the experience into the African region. Tech4SM will adopt a design thinking approach to curriculum development. Through a participatory process involving stakeholders, giving voice to YSM as protagonists, we will co-create a curriculum that is responsive to their needs and aspirations and that can be replicable in Rwanda, Kenya and the region. Outcomes: Development of ICT-based curriculum tailored for YSM, addressing digital literacy, entrepreneurship, and empowerment.
