International Transformation Foundation (ITF) is an internationally youth led non-profit organization providing youth educational and self-development programs, encompassing leadership and entrepreneurship, to harness creativity for a youth system that provides jobs, offering security, opportunities to grow, and contribute to the development of our communities.
Since its establishment ITF has been developing and operating youth development programs to lead the youth of today as leaders with a strong heart and mind as true workers of society with creative and progressive thinking. Our current projects are:
1. Join the Pipe Project: Installing sustainable tap water stations near playgrounds, city centers, parks, schools and bus stations in Africa; for people to access clean tap water whenever possible. The project also works to bring awareness to the environmental impact of production and waste of bottled water through two ventures:
2. Jijenge Kijana Fund: a youth livelihood pathway offering microcredit, micro-saving and training which enables ITF members to engage in productive and stable livelihoods.
3. Erasmus Plus Projects:
ITF operates capacity-building projects that gather global partnerships with the aim of tackling youth unemployment by bridging the educational sector and labor market enabling young people to undergo work-based learning. These projects are co-financed by the Erasmus plus programme of the European Union.
The Inclusive Greening Excellence in the African Education and Training Ecosystem (GEAVET) project seeks to tackle the challenges posed by climate change and the ongoing mismatch between job requirements and the skills provided by education and vocational training systems. The project is set to run for 3 years from December 2023 – November 2026. The objective is to shift agriculture from traditional subsistence farming to climate-smart, nature-positive practices that generate income and jobs. The project will be done in collaboration with six other partners which include Eduforma Srl – (Italy), European Knowledge Spot (Greece), SKINK (Croatia), Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU)- (Nigeria), Associacao De Educacao De Jovens E Adultos De Nampula (Mozambique) and Uganda Youth Skills Training Organizations – (Uganda).
