A Non-Governmental Organization, Shapers Network Africa, has equipped over 100 students, recent graduates, and early career professionals, with skills on how to access decent jobs, lead impactful careers, and contribute meaningfully to Africa’s sustainable development.
The initiative tagged, ‘SkilledforNow 2.0’ was held in Ibadan.
It was supported by the Youth Empowerment Fund and funded by the European Union and Global Youth Mobilisation.
The event attracted diverse audience, with the majority attending onsite and others joining virtually via livestream.
Ahead of the in-person workshop, more than 100 young people actively participated in a 12-day virtual BootCamp designed to provide foundational learning in career readiness and professional development.
Participants joined from Nigeria and across Africa, including Tanzania, Cameroon, and Kenya.
In her welcome address, Oyindamola Osinubi, founder of Shapers Network Africa, encouraged participants to take ownership of their growth and careers.
