Vplus school open day at GDPU: with parents, teachers and trainees

We all deserve to live with dignity and respect



Vplus@GDPU

This is a major ETC of PWD project in Gulu, Northern Uganda – V is for Vocational Training and ‘plus’ showing how extra elements make the training successful.

Vplus@GDPU, the basics:

5During 2021, 50 disabled young people were trained at Gulu Disabled Persons Union on a six months training programme. This will be followed by six months post training support for them. We are searching hard for sources of funding to keep this programme going and to pay for the next group of trainees in 2022.

With your help we can support GDPU in training these young people to become successful and respected



To train one trainee for six months on site costs approximately £135

To train one trainee for six months on site and give six months post training support costs approximately £295
