The above video is the day of the graduating ceremony at Youth Alive, Peter (member of YA staff) is delivering training certificates and tools to the succesful trainees, all of them ex-street children supported by Youth Alive. The graduates are given tools and a stipend to help them start with their new trades. All of them used to live on the street and are now supporting families and relatives and are themselves employing and training other apprentices, recruted through the Youth Alive programme.
