ABOUT US
The Kouandi Youth and Human Rights Center is a non-profit organization focused on empowering the youth to seek a path of stability through the strengthening of their competencies.
Numerous factors contribute to the political, social, and economic destabilization of a state. Among those factors is an uneducated youth, deprived of its ability to fully contribute to the sustainable development of society.
Our mission
Our mission is inspired by the work of celebrated humanitarian and former Minister of Commerce of Cote d’Ivoire, Nicolas Kouandi Angba, who is credited with opening trade and development relations between Cote d’Ivoire and the rest of the world, as well as for his extensive humanitarian work for the advancement of the youth.
Training Center
The Kouandi Youth training center is designed to equip our youth with the tools needed to become indispensable players of society. Our program focuses on developing the fundamental life skills necessary for their advancement. We accomplish this with the help of our valuable members and partners, who provide their expertise, innovative-thinking, and utmost professionalism with the goal of making a significant impact in the world.
