CHREAA, in partnership with DVV International and the Malawi Prison Service, are currently implementing an impactful project at Zomba Central Prison. The primary objective of the project is to provide education and training opportunities to prisoners through tailored vocational programs, including Barbering, Carpentry and Joinery, and Tailoring.
The project specifically targets prisoners who express interest in acquiring vocational skills, possess basic literacy skills, have committed minor offences, and are approaching the completion of their sentences. The acquired skills are expected to equip the inmates with the means to engage in income-generating activities once they are released, promoting self-sustainability. In the year 2023, CHREAA successfully graduated 46 inmates.
