Youth Empowerment Programs
Over the years, Petabiz Nigeria has been actively engaged in youth coaching and mentoring, demonstrating our commitment to nurturing and developing the potential of young people. We believe that every young person has the potential to achieve great things, and we are committed to providing them with the tools and support they need to succeed.
Our commitment to transforming the lives of young individuals is underscored by our participation in various impactful initiatives, a few of which are highlighted below:
- Talent Discovery Session with Facebook: We successfully organized a full-day Talent Discovery session for 70 youths, in collaboration with Facebook’s Tech Initiative for Brightest African Youths as Developers.
- Lagos State Employment Trust Fund and GIZ Collaboration: Petabiz actively participated in the empowerment of Lagos State youths in creative skills through a collaboration with the Lagos State Employment Trust Fund and GIZ.
- CLEEN Foundation Empowerment Program: We were instrumental in the pilot scheme on Local Government Empowerment using Ajeromi Ifelodun, Adekunle in Lagos, Nigeria, as a test case in collaboration with the Cleen Foundation.
Our approach to youth transformation involves the use of proven tools and methodologies, some of which include:
- Clifton Strengths Assessment (Gallup): Utilized for talent self-discovery.
- BP 10 Initiative: A tool that tests entrepreneurial traits while also setting the roadmap for successfully creating economic entities to drive the nation’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP).
- E2Grow: A tool that activates and nurtures leadership skills, building team integration capacity in individuals.
Our youth coaching and mentoring programs are designed to help young people develop the skills they need to succeed in life. We also provide young people with opportunities to learn about different career paths, develop their entrepreneurial skills, and get involved in their communities.
We believe that by investing in young people, we are investing in the future of the society and the country.
