About CEDESA Initiative

The Centre for Education Development and Skills Acquisition Initiative (CEDESA Initiative) is a non-governmental organization committed to bringing sanity to education and creating opportunities for children and young people to discover and fulfil their potential. We believe quality education is essential to transforming lives, strengthening communities and building a better society.

CEDESA focuses on disadvantaged children and youths, particularly in rural and semi-urban communities. Through literacy programmes, academic support, scholarships, mentoring and skills acquisition, we equip young people with the knowledge, confidence and practical skills needed to become self-reliant and contribute positively to society.

We also promote academic excellence and discourage examination malpractice by encouraging students, parents and educators to value hard work, discipline and genuine learning. Through educational programmes, free vacation coaching, seminars and skills development, CEDESA Initiative works to empower young people and create pathways to productive and meaningful futures.
