“Rashima and I have supported CSSG’s initiatives since 2011 there are few organisations that are creatively rethinking vocational training in the same way that CSSG is. Instead of viewing vocational training as a short-term solution to youth unemployment by quickly training young adults for repetitive work on an assembly line, CSSG guides students towards a long-term solution by training underprivileged young men and woman for a career that is worthwhile, challenging, and intrinsically interesting. By providing them with the opportunity to develop tangible skills for long lasting careers in a variety of fast-growing sectors and beyond teaching students literacy and arithmetic, CSSG foster in the youth they work with the ability to think originally and creatively about a wide range of issues in a myriad of rewarding careers. They go beyond teaching the proverbial man to catch a fish; they nurture youths’ innate creativity, giving them the ability to rethink, reinvent, and disrupt the entire” fishing” industry”
