Young Scholars attend training institute

29 July 2026

On 24 June 2026, the five young scholars of the Sasakawa Leprosy Initiative Young Scholar Programme visited TMSS Technical Institute in Bogura with mentors as part of their pre-training orientation.

They familiarised themselves with the venue helping to build their confidence and motivation ahead of their upcoming training.

They also visited vocational classrooms covering computer training, sewing machine operation, and plumbing. The visit provided them with a better understanding of available career opportunities and helped them to refine their future career plans.

You can read more about the young scholars in our upcoming autumn issue of Lepra News. Sign-up to receive your copy here.
