RSD recently diversified into a new direction by forming a partnership with Skills Goes Rural. For RSD to get involved was the obvious decision to make. By utilising the knowledge RSD gained over the past years in comprehensive skills development for children and contributing this knowledge to a holistic skills development program focused on our rural communities in South Africa, was a no brainer.

A key challenge is creating a safe and creative environment where all children and the youth can actively participate and learn on an equal level, in an environment conducive to learning, while acquiring fundamental social, life, physical and mental skills.
-
Another challenge is investing time, skills and proper training by professionals to the South African youth and communities.
​
-
The aim of Skills Goes Rural is to take comprehensive skill development to our rural communities to reach a larger audience.
-
We aim to provide comprehensive skill development to facilitators, children and the youth.
​
-
By achieving this, we will provide the children and the youth with a feeling of purpose, belonging to a group where they feel safe.
-
This could be the opportunity a child has been longing for, taking them “off the streets” and offering them a different opportunity for their future.
