YESSERA
Working Towards a Brighter Future
YESSERA (Young Ethiopian Self Sufficiency Enhancing Re-education Association) was founded by a group of friends in 2001 with the mission to help provide youth in Ethiopia with the immediate hands-on training to immerse in the workforce in order to improve their economic status. This organization is run by dedicated volunteers that are passionate about working towards a brighter future.
YESSERA at a Glance
After nearly two decades of formal vocational training, YESSERA now is exploring a newer approach with an even greater potential to alleviate poverty and empower youth to achieve self-sufficiency.
As a fast, efficient, outcome focused training, Informal Traditional Apprenticeship Training (ITAT) will enable YESSERA to provide its students immediate, hands on immersion in the work process. Also, its mobilizing of existing know-how to reach a greater number, in numerous sectors, and in as many places means its outreach would link and gainfully engage the unexploited talents of many men and women out there.
In addition, a pilot project is now in place in Addis Ababa. Explorations are underway to expand and refine outreach involving multiple players.
