Stories of Change

Real stories from the people whose lives have been transformed by Y'abal's programmes.

Amina's Journey

"When I arrived in Belgium, I couldn't speak Dutch and had no idea how to navigate the system. Y'abal's language programme gave me the skills to communicate, and the vocational training programme helped me find work as a healthcare assistant. Today, I'm employed full-time and supporting my family independently."

— Amina, Language & Vocational Programme Graduate, 2022

Kofi's Micro-Enterprise

"Y'abal didn't just give me a small grant to start my catering business — they gave me a mentor who helped me write a business plan, understand Belgian regulations, and find my first customers. Two years later, my business employs three people from my community."

— Kofi, Micro-Enterprise Programme Graduate, 2021
