Green Vocational Education Training (GreenVET) Programme

The Green Vocational Education Training (GreenVET) program is a pioneering initiative under the Climate Engage Innovation Development (CEID) Hub, designed to empower African youth by providing relevant technical and vocational education in renewable energy, food systems, and intelligent waste management.

Our mission is to foster sustainable socio-economic development through education, equipping young people with green technical skills, knowledge, values, and hands-on necessary to lead the green transformation in Africa. The GreenVET programme aims to promote education, employment, business and technology development, and active citizenship among youth.
