What We Are Seeking

Partners to fund the full pathway

SEYIK is a young organisation with a narrow mandate, a registered legal identity, a functioning governing body, and a clear measure of success.

Cohort sponsorship

The full cost of moving one young person from identification through certification into verified employment.

Discuss sponsorship →

Retention costs

Transport, upkeep, tools and childcare — the specific costs that determine whether a young person completes or drops out.

Support retention →

Systems and compliance

Establishment of our safeguarding framework, financial systems and participant tracking database.

Strengthen systems →

Core support

Modest core costs to sustain a lean team while we build a delivery record.

Partnership approach

We welcome sub-granting and consortium arrangements with established organisations working in Karamoja that require a focused, locally rooted implementing partner.

Partnerships

SEYIK works through partnership rather than duplication. We are building relationships across four categories:

1. Government

District Local Governments and Community Development Offices in Moroto and Amudat; alignment with the Parish Development Model, Emyooga and the Youth Livelihood Programme, into which our graduates are positioned to enter equipped rather than unprepared.

2. Training providers

Technical institutes, skilling hubs and vocational training centres in Karamoja, into which we place and retain participants.

3. Employers and markets

Contractors, traders, mining operators, livestock market actors and enterprises that can absorb certified young people.

4. Civil society

Karamoja civil society networks and youth coalitions, and national and international organisations seeking credible local implementing partners in the sub-region.
