Today marks the second day of my PDM assessment tour in the Karamoja Sub-region. I visited the Karamoja Industrial Hub located in Napak District, which has provided training for the youth in the following areas: - Welding - Tailoring - Bakery - Hairdressing - Construction - Carpentry - Shoemaking I am delighted that the children have responded to our call, and the parents are supportive. Additionally, I propose we include more skills in this hub, such as motor mechanics, plumbing, weaving, and knitting.
This hub addresses the pressing issues of people lacking shoes and shelter. Young people can use their skills to create shoes and construct houses. Furthermore, I would like this specific hub to have a 4-acre farm to demonstrate the four-sector model and allow our youth to learn how to effectively utilize small land. I wish our young people good luck.
