Vocational training groups in Uganda formed around specific skills or trades, such as tailoring, carpentry, catering, agriculture production, and entrepreneurship. These groups provide a platform for women and youths to acquire practical skills, knowledge, and competencies that are relevant to the local labor market. Group-based approaches are common, fostering peer learning, collaboration, and mutual support among trainees.
