About Us
Aspyre Africa is a UK-registered charity created to provide the most vulnerable young people with access to quality vocational training, decent work and the support they need to succeed in life. We are currently working in Senegal. We bring:
- 20 years of experience working with children and young people in street situations in Sub-Saharan Africa.
- Extensive network of contacts and understanding of the local context in Senegal, including a comprehensive knowledge and monitoring of relevant bilateral and multilateral projects
- Independent and flexible structure without political or religious agenda, ideally placed to act as a facilitator
