Why Cotech?

The world has become a global village due to technology. This advancements in technology across the globe has changed how health, security, education and business matters are handled. The innovations have improved literacy, enhanced skills and catalyzed human co-existence. Yet, in most part of Kenya especially Kitale, most women and youths remain trapped in darkness, poverty and desperation, despite most of them completing their O-level education with promising grades.

The root cause is clear: lack of practical skills for sustainability. While the Kenyan government advocates for full transition from primary schools to secondary education, support for post-secondary skills development is limited to a few. Consequently, many youths resort to risky behaviors, while unskilled women migrate to urban areas seeking work and face exploitation. They find themselves into this not out of choice but circumstances.

At Cotech, we belive all is not lost. By identifying and equipping these women and youths with relevant skills, we open their minds to new opportunities and sustainable livelihoods. Our programs leverage ICT training, tailoring, and fashion design to empower participants, lighting a path to economic independence and community contribution.
