From Skills to Decent Employment: Creating Opportunities for Youth with Disabilities
Under the RISEE Project, in Karachi 09 youth with disabilities successfully completed an on-the-job training programme designed to strengthen their employability, build market-oriented skills, and provide meaningful workplace experience.
05 youth received training at Towellers Private Limited, while 04 youth were trained at AGI Denim. Upon successful completion, all 09 participants received certificates in recognition of their participation and skills development.
Most importantly, the training is already translating into employment opportunities:
04 youth secured employment with AGI Denim
03 youth have been shortlisted by Towellers Private Limited for potential employment in the coming months.
Beyond skills development, the initiative is helping build employer confidence in hiring Persons With Disabilities (PWDs) and creating pathways for young People With Disabilities to transition from training to decent, sustainable employment.
When opportunity meets ability, inclusion becomes impact.
