Wema Initiatives
An Undergraduate scholarship program for students in Zanzibar
Wema Scholar
After taking an extremely long journey with a child at Fatima House, simply saying ‘goodbye’ was not an option! We definitely wanted to continue to contribute to their development by granting scholarships to help them pursue their studies.
The Wema Scholar program also provides opportunities for young adults outside Fatima House with a limited number of scholarships every year.
An educational and networking platform to enable the youth in Zanzibar to obtain employment
Wema Academy
While implementing a wide variety of projects, our thrust has always been on working with youth and children through their capabilities and capacities and to channel their energies for the betterment of society at large. Hence, the idea of Wema Academy was brought to light to empower Fatima House graduates and the youth in general with professional skills through training and certification to create employment opportunities and make a sustainable income a reality.
Wema Academy offers several workshops throughout the year in various fields, which consider all the individual differences and personal attributes of the candidates. We provide professional training courses with certified tutors to maximize the job opportunities for the trainees after they graduate, and they will be professionally certified after completing the training course.
