Education, Mentorship and Leadership

TEDA strengthens education through its School–Community (S-C) Model, working with students, teachers, parents, and community leaders to improve school enrolment, reduce dropout rates, prevent child marriage, and nurture ethical young leaders. By combining mentorship, leadership development, community engagement, and access to opportunities, we equip young people with the knowledge, confidence, and skills to shape a better future.

Our Focus

• School Retention & Enrolment – Supporting vulnerable learners to stay in school and complete their education.
• Youth Mentorship – Connecting young people with mentors, role models, and life-changing guidance.
• Leadership Development – Building confident, ethical, and community-driven young leaders.
• Community Action – Engaging parents, teachers, and local leaders to promote education and protect children.
• Girls’ Education – Addressing barriers such as poverty, child marriage, and teenage pregnancy.
• Pathways to Opportunity – Linking youth to scholarships, skilling programmes, internships, and career opportunities.
