Talitha Project creates space for girls, young women in Tonga

Talitha Project, a non-government organisation working with girls and young women has opened a new room that will be used as create space for them.

The participants will be able to obtain skills training and express themselves through their creativity.

This will assist the young women in developing skills and giving them a basis to earn financial means which ties in with the Project’s aim to encourage women, girls and young youths to develop their own economic independence, pursue further skill development and ultimately contribute to Tonga’s economy. 

Talitha Project provides young Tongan women and girls an opportunity to have a voice and make informed choices relating to their lifestyle and future. 

It caters for those between the ages 12 – 25 years. 

Talitha Project is headed by Vanessa Heleta.
