There is a rapidly growing interest among young Nigerians to actively contribute towards the actualization of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 2030 agenda through social impact but many of these youths lack the necessary technical and non-technical skills to take the lead role.
These compound into some of the key reasons that restrict the sector’s potential for growth and sustainable change further hindering the ability of passionate young individuals to translate their aspirations into tangible, impactful social change.
This two-week program will equip participants with the skills, knowledge, and support to develop, implement, and scale impactful social change projects.
