  • Hello everyone my name is Modupe Ativie, after 12 years experience in training, learning & development and human capacity building, I set up my own management consultancy to continue to offer these services. I am not currently involved with any NGO.
    However one thing that has bothered me for a while is the growing incomeptence of teachers in Nigeria, especially those in the public schools. My heart bleeds thinking about the quality of children these schools would churn out if the teachers themselves dont know much. My passion now is to use what i'm good at to help by reaching out to leaders in the educational sector to derive and design programmes to help them improve on the job, while increasing the standards for the teacher selection process, not to prevent people from becoming teachers, but including practical ways they can improve on themselves so they can give more to the children they teach.

  • Hello everyone, I am Dumbi Olisemenogor. I am here to improve on my advocacy skill.

  • @samueloduoye said in Introduce yourself to the community:

    I'm Samuel, based in Ibadan. I've been into advocacy, volunteering and social entrepreneurship for a few years now. Currently, I run a youth-led initiative that is seeking to facilitate capacity building youths for youths. The idea is mainly to bridge the gaps in employability skills, created by our education system. It's a pan-African initiative, and we currently have team members in Ghana and Nigeria. I'm here to connect with more people in similar field, and learn a few things around fund-raising and NGO coordnation.

    Thanks, Jason.

    I became fascinated with youth development a few ago, and I have executed a few projects on reducing capacity development for young people, and moral advocacy. I realised how African educational system hasn't been helpful for employability in recent times, and I decided that the right skills need to be thought. Considering the skills I found to be required in my professional works over the past few years, I conclude this idea is very essential. Stakeholders should be made to commit to preparing youths properly for career fulfilment.
