LAGA-Institute is proud to announce a new international partnership with the Community Development Agency (CDA) International, a U.S.-based organization committed to sustainable community transformation through education, empowerment, and economic development.

This strategic affiliation reflects a shared vision between LAGAI and CDA International to build resilient communities through technical education, youth empowerment, and capacity-building initiatives across Africa and beyond.

As part of this partnership, LAGA- Institute will collaborate with CDA International on:

• Community-based vocational and entrepreneurship training programs

• Capacity development for rural and underserved populations

• Joint research and sustainable development projects

• Student and faculty exchange programs between Africa and the United States

CDA International, with decades of experience working across continents, brings valuable expertise in rural development, public health education, and skills transfer programs — strengthening LAGAI’s mission to raise a new generation of skilled professionals who are grounded in both industry and community values.

“Our collaboration with CDA International aligns perfectly with our mission to make technical education a tool for transformation — not just in the classroom, but in the heart of communities. Together, we can bridge global knowledge with local action.”

The affiliation also paves the way for LAGA-Institute to become a regional hub for community resilience training, particularly in areas like green skills, social entrepreneurship, healthcare support, and climate-smart agriculture.

This partnership reinforces LAGAI’s identity as not just a technical institution, but a catalyst for holistic, community-centered development.
