The International Labour Organization (ILO) has said that it plans to use Malawi as a model in Africa for the establishment and implementation of community colleges.
ILO Director General Assistant Director General also Regional Director for Africa Aeneas Chapinga Chuma told journalists in the capital Lilongwe after expressing the organisation’s commitment to President Peter Mutharika at Kamuzu Palace.
She said that ILO is keen on working with Malawi in implementing the community colleges concept.

“We would like to use Malawi as a model in Africa that economic growth can easily be achieved when jobs have been created for the people,” he said.
Community Colleges will start in October, this year using the existing Community Day Secondary School Colleges, he said.
In these colleges, he explained, the youths will be trained in community-driven technical skills, entrepreneurship and other relevant technical expertise.
