Peace Corps Volunteers Implement "The Life Skills and Leadership" Programme in Tahala

The Life Skills and Leadership programme is designed to be used by Peace Corps  Volunteers and their counterparts who work with youth worldwide to develop the knowledge, skills, and attitudes integral to three Youth in Development sector competencies:

1. Support healthy lifestyles and prepare youth for family life;
2. Prepare youth for the world of work; and
3. Engage youth as active citizens.

Twenty four third-year middle school students from Aklam Lazar private school in Tahala have signed up for "The Life Skills and Leadership" programme.


Azar Aklam Private School admins, Peace Corps Volunteer, Amy Carpenter and her assistants, Youssef El Kaidi, AMA Tahal Access Programme coordinator and representatives of Taza Provincial Directorate of the Ministry of National Education, Higher Education and Scientific Research met on Friday October 6th, 2017 to officially launch the programme.


While a particular project may focus on only one or two of these sector competencies, the life skills and leadership topics relate to all aspects of life, including: succeeding in the workplace, fostering healthy living, and engaging with communities.
