SKILL DEVELOPMENT

EARNING WITH DIGNITY

The skilling initiatives of GRAVIMA focus on employable skill training for local communities, especially youth and women; creating micro-enterprise opportunities for young women and men, including seed loans; and building capacity of the trainers.

Targeted at youth and women in urban areas, GRAVIMA’s skilling initiatives aim to promote sustainable livelihood opportunities that create strong and self-reliant people and communities.

HUMANITARIAN ACTION

STANDING WITH COMMUNITIES IN NEED

Natural and man-made disasters are a regular, albeit unpredictable part of life. As the world faces intensifying climate change, weather-related disasters are expected to grow. Responding to these, requires the effort and coordination of many stakeholders—from government and communities to NGOs and business. And when disaster strikes, GRAVIMA coordinates resources to provide humanitarian aid to employees and communities in need and supports 'building back'.
