We recognise that choosing a career path that corresponds with your interests, goals, and talents can be difficult at times. As a result, we at Samata intends to assist students and offer career advice.

Skillsets have become increasingly vital while applying for jobs, and every industry has become more competitive. We've been there before! Yes, indeed!

Theory of Change

We use an integrated strategy with three elements to enable young people and citizens. First, we aim to increase awareness via our interventions so that people can make well-informed choices about their rights. Second, we aim to foster an atmosphere in which individuals' interests and rights are valued and protected by relevant stakeholders. Third, we aim to assist individuals in gaining access to resources and skills. To do this, we aim to collaborate with organizations that are embedded in and recognize the local cultures as well as the national background. We aim to build young people's capacity to advocate for public policy, governance, community health needs and rights.
