THE ISSUE

Digital Inclusion For Female Youths in Nigeria...

One of the predominant issues in Nigeria is the high level of poverty, with unemployment serving as its principal root cause. According to a poverty assessment test conducted by the World Bank in the post-COVID economy, the poverty line of Nigerians has increased from 40% in 2020 to 45% in 2022.

The world is advancing rapidly, with technology being a key driver of economic growth. Individuals and organisations are becoming more technologically sophisticated in their modes of operation and implementation.

The significant shortfall in technology education in Nigeria is evident, particularly among females. This imbalance has resulted in unfavorable employment opportunities, financial incapacity, deprived rights, forced early marriages, diminished self-esteem, and other negative effects for young girls and women.

The average Nigerian female young person is excessively dependent on others for survival.

OUR SOLUTION

She-Tech Digital Inclusion For Girls and Women

The SheTech Boot Camp is a professional program that aims to accelerate digital and life skills for girls and women living in underserved communities in Nigeria.

Our initiative is focused on equipping them with technical, soft, and business skills to enable them to become self-employed or employable. The skills acquired by the girls and women will give them easy access to the market, providing them with employable jobs or the ability to start, manage, and expand their businesses.

Our ultimate objective is to provide a platform that allows them to become self-sufficient and pursue their dreams without relying solely on external financial support.

We achieve these objectives by providing intensive training, internship opportunities, mentorship, and business start-up opportunities that empower the participants with both digital, life and business skills.

OUR KEY OBJECTIVES

Educate. Equip. Empower

1. To provide digital literacy and skills to underserved female youths aged 13 to 35. We believe that proficiency in digital technologies can empower them to achieve personal, educational, and business goals.

2. To help girls and women acquire marketable skills, leading to greater employment opportunities and enabling them to start their tech-based businesses. Ultimately, we want to lift them out of poverty.

3. By creating a platform for young girls and women to build competencies, we aim to help them pursue careers in tech, become self-sufficient, and make meaningful contributions on their terms.

We firmly believe that through this initiative, we will inspire and empower these young women to realise their full potential and bridge the gender inequality for females in tech.

OUR APPROACH

We provide training, mentorship, internship and apprenticeship opportunities for female youths.

Digital Skills Training

The female beneficiaries will learn through our intensive 3-months digital skills training programme. The learning path centre on: Website Design/Development, Social Media Management/Advertisement, Graphics Design and other tech-based courses.

Internship/Apprenticeship

Participants from the She-Tech programme will gain hands-on business experience through internships and apprenticeships to develop work ethics. The goal is to support them with hands-on and real-life experiences in business.

Social Impact Initiative

This initiative allows participants to give back by sharing their knowledge gained from the She-Tech programme. They will be required to mentor and guide another group in their community based on what they learnt for free.

Testimonials

The programme gave me a headstart on many things that others would have paid a lot of money for. Today, I handle graphics designs and photography. I plan on starting my business after I graduate from secondary school, and I am building my network. I manage social media pages for several businesses now.

The She-Tech Boot Camp was the most amazing thing that has happened to me. In addition to the skills I learnt (web design and social media management), it opened my eyes to all the opportunities lying around in my world. The programme also helped in restructuring my mindset, and I see myself differently now.

The She-Tech programme was an excellent and exceptional experience for me. I was so amazed at all I learnt. I know how to design a website and manage social media business pages, I have been able to earn a little with the knowledge and skills I gained from the boot camp. It was also exciting meeting and makiine new friends.

The She-Tech Boot Camp was a wonderful and eye opening experience for me. I have developed new digital skills. I can design website and advertise on social media. My plan is to add more to what I already know, try new things and earn money. I have a three and six months plan to ensure that I achieve this goal.
