The Youngstars Foundation is now accepting applications for the Female and More Mentors Bootcamp taking place August 31st to September 1st, 2017 in Abuja, Nigeria. Female And More is a self-esteem program for young Nigerian women organized by Youngstars Foundation in partnership with the World Movement for Democracy, USA.
Are you a confident young female? Do you want to mentor and guide other young females to overcome low self-esteem? Do you want to see more of emboldened young females in our society? If yes, here is your chance to join 100 emboldened females who will mentor 3,000 young females to complete a 30 days self-esteem challenge.
About the Programme
Female And More is designed to raise the self-esteem and aspirations of thousands of young females in Nigeria and Africa at large. Using the step down model, annually 150 Female Enablers (FEs) shall be trained to inspire 5,000 secondary school girls and female undergraduates to complete Female And More 30 days Self Esteem Curriculum.
Each of the Female Enablers after the training shall adopt a school or campus where they shall work with an estimated 50 young females for 4 weeks. Each of the girls participating in the 30 days challenge shall receive a free copy of the Self Esteem curriculum as part of their toolkit. After the 30 days self esteem journey, participants will be encouraged to embark on a 90 days challenge to do a project to demonstrate a rise in their self esteem.
This programme is premised on the fact that no meaningful development is possible without women. Nigeria needs more emboldened young women, who can aspire greatly, unleash their potentials and contribute massively to national development. So if you like to join their effort to raise more emboldened young women in Nigeria, sign up today to participate in the 2-day Female And More Mentors Bootcamp.
