Community Creative Capacity Building Advocacy Training: Empowering the Mfensi Community through Clay: Enhancing Material Quality for Better Livelihoods (Mfensi)

This program seeks to improve the quality of clay used by artisans in the Mfensi community. By enhancing the material properties of local clay through advanced techniques, TCC-CIMET aims to help artisans produce higher-quality, more durable products. This improvement in raw materials will not only elevate the craftsmanship but also increase marketability, allowing artisans to compete in both local and global markets. Through this initiative, TCC-CIMET empowers artisans to enhance their skills, increase their income, and contribute to the sustainable growth of their community. This initiative will offer hands-on learning in the production of liquid and cake soap, as well as body cream making. Participants will also receive valuable insights into starting and managing their own ventures, with a focus on entrepreneurial skills, and hygiene practices in cosmetic production.

Impacting the Informal Sector with Cutting-Edge Engineering Trends: Empowering Artisans in Suame Magazine: Modern Trends in Manufacturing, Automotive, and Smart Technologies

TCC-CIMET in collaboration with Engineering Council and Suame Magazine Industrial Development Organization (SMIDO), of Ghana will provide interactive training sessions for artisans at Suame Magazine and selected students from Technical Institutions and Universities. The focus will be on smart manufacturing technologies, including Computer Aided Design, Computer Aided Manufacturing and CNC Milling and Lathe, Plasma Cutting and 3D Printing.
