This project provided educational support and scholarships to sexually exploited girls and young mothers, ensuring they had access to both formal and non-formal education. By offering full and partial scholarships, the initiative enabled vulnerable young women to continue their studies and build a better future. Additionally, the project extended support to the families of these children by introducing income-generating activities (IGAs), empowering them to sustain the education of other children within their households
