Student Success

---

Some alumni of Djolu Technical College go on to work for local and international organizations such as Vie Sauvage, the African Wildlife Foundation, Djolu Hospital, and the UN Food and Agriculture Organization.  Others work in regional government or in local schools, and some have started conservation and development projects in their own communities.

Over 140 students have graduated from Djolu Technical College since its opening. The college has great community support and is growing fast. There are currently 120 students attending the college! Meet just a few of them...

Other Djolu graduates have researched social, economic or health-related dimensions of rural development, including family planning practices, childhood malnutrition, the contribution of non-timber forest products to household income, women's participation in decision-making at area nature reserves, and early childbearing as an obstacle to women's development.

I am an activist for development, but I was blocked and couldn’t advance anymore. So I decided to study at Djolu Technical College so that I could acquire the training needed to help enhance development efforts in our area, and promote the role of women in these activities. Because if women are not actively aware and involved, then it will be difficult to truly protect the environment."

Josephine, graduate of  Djolu Technical College and leader of a Djolu women's organization

 Many women here do not finish secondary school, much less attend college. I knew this would be a challenge, and I'm ready for it!
