Life skills & Leadership Development

Prepare Children for Life’s Test, Not Just School Exams

In the counties where we work—Nandi, Samburu, Turkana, Kitui, Kajiado, Pokot, Bomet, Bungoma, Baringo, and Homa Bay—children face complex challenges: poverty, harmful cultural practices, trauma, and limited access to mentorship. In these environments, academic success alone is not enough.

We also nurture leadership. Through our curriculum, where children learn to lead themselves, influence their peers, and serve their communities. We envision a generation that does not just escape vulnerability but leads positive change from within.

In counties where teenage pregnancy, substance abuse, and school dropout rates are high, these programs act as a bridge to hope, identity restoration, and community resilience.

Progressive Life Skills Curriculum (Grades 9-12) Based on WHO Life Skills Education Framework decision-making and Critical Thinking.

One of our primary goals is to develop both critical and creative thinking in children. We envision a future where, when faced with challenges, they can analyze situations thoughtfully and make well-informed, constructive decisions. This empowers them not just to react, but to lead with clarity, confidence, and purpose.

Building on WHO guidelines, our curriculum evolves across four years of high school, ensuring students graduate with comprehensive life preparation. UNICEF, UNESCO and WHO identify these 10 core life skills:

1. Problem solving,
2. Critical thinking,
3. Effective communication,
4. Decision making,
5. Creative Thinking,
6. Managing interpersonal relationships,
7. Building self-awareness,
8. Empathy,
9. Coping with stress and emotions.
