\n

At Technical College Dedza, we provide hands-on, inclusive education that prepares young people for employment and independent living.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

In Malawi, 80% of the population is under the age of 35. At the same time, there are too few job opportunities and limited access to education and training.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each year, around 300,000 young people enter the job market, while only about 30,000 jobs are available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Technical education offers a solution: young people learn a trade and gain prospects for employment and independence.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
