Mawejje Creations is social enterprise and banana fiber center which develops affordable banana fiber products to reduce banana waste, enable banana growers earn extra income while creating jobs opportunity for disadvantaged youth and women in rural and urban communities in Uganda.Through banana fiber production/extraction, incubation and hands-on skills training.

Uganda is among of African countries with emerging growing number of younger people with 75% in age of 15-25 yrs. Most of these young people go through difficults of unemployment and underemployment yet industrial and service sector have not created enough jobs for youthful burgeoning labour. This has been anorm which have been happening in my community for the past 10 years since I started understanding what life is,7 out of 10 young people in my community havent been employed and 3 out 10 have been able to access jobs opportunity through different sectors both private and government ie car drivers,boda boda cyclist,market vendors and so on. For the past 58 and another extesion of 21 days everything come to change after the president decaring a country lockdown and suspesion of public gathering,public transport and other services.
The entire world has been affected by this pandemic to extent that it even hit the job and human resource sector which has left over 800million people loosing their jobs according to the report released by International Labour Organisation in March 2020. It didn’t stop on global level only but even our communities have been affected with same factor of Covid19 which has put the entire world in situation of uncerternity due this pandemic.
In response to the situation, Mawejje Creations has come up with POST COVID HANDS-ON SKILLS TRAINING to raise 400000/-ugx(100$-150$) for younger people who have been affected by the pandemic to train and equip 16 outstanding younger people with life time skills in banana fiber jewelry,photo flames,coaster/glass covers all made out of banana waste(banana fibers) and recycled paper board.
