26 IMPACT+ model club leaders trained to create change in their communities
The IMPACT+ Club model is an integrated life skills approach to adolescent engagement whose is that adolescents, especially the most vulnerable, transition well into adulthood as active citizens empowered with competencies, values, confidence and social connectedness.
These IMPACT+ clubs, which will be consisting of 10-25 adolescents each, are set to be established in all four regions in the country, and, will be addressing all the issues that the community faces. These include teenage pregnancies, unemployment, drug addiction, etc, and adolescent club members are involved in all decision-making, including the planning, monitoring, evaluation, and day-to-day activities of the club.
The selected club members fully participated in the training, from the first day until the very end.
