In 2001, RET began its interventions in Guinea to protect young people and mitigate the long-term effects of armed violence on youth in Guinea and neighboring countries.
RET worked with local and migrant youth from Sierra Leone and Liberia to ensure a recognized and credited secondary education for the most vulnerable. In the Kountaya refugee camp, RET built the capacity of teachers through training (TOT), provided aid for the construction of classrooms, and provided school materials for students. RET provided local and refugee young people with psychosocial support and vocational training to contribute to their wellbeing and cognitive and social development.
RET ceased its activities in Guinea in 2005 but continued to work with and monitor the situation of vulnerable youth displaced due to violence, armed conflicts, disasters in fragile parts of Africa (see our Burundi, Chad, Kenya, Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Mauritania, pages for more details).
