My name is Abel. I am a qualified Carpenter and a South Africa returnee. I came back home to Bulawayo to rebuild my life with dignity and use my skills to support my family and community. I have 2 goals that will change my future: 1. STCW MARITIME TRAINING – $800 This international certificate allows me to work on ships as a carpenter/crew. Ships always need skilled carpenters for maintenance and repairs. This will give me stable employment opportunities. 2.
