Kenya Association of Manufacturers (KAM) partnered with Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) to implement the Employment for Development programme, popularly known as E4D SOGA, to promote youth employment through skills development. KAM Chief Executive, Ms Phyllis Wakiaga, noted that the programme has enabled the Association to inch closer towards achieving its vision of supporting skills-based job creation agenda and increase manufacturing sector jobs. “Through this program, we have seen youth take up internships in various industries, with some being employed permanently. This is critical, especially because the world is moving fast towards Industry 4.0 to increase the manufacturing sector’s output” said Ms Wakiaga.
