Digital & Entrepreneurial Skills For Women & Youth

We believe in digitalization for Sustainable development in Nigeria

The digital and entrepreneurial skills for women and youth output aims to ensure digital and entrepreneurial skills are developed among youth and women by: harmonising existing digital and entrepreneurial skills programmes of innovation support organisations, public and private training providers, etc. through a national digital and entrepreneurial training qualification framework. This will support the standardisation of digital and entrepreneurial training programmes and increase quality. In addition, women’s digital and entrepreneurial skills are promoted through special acceleration programmes, the development of a mentoring and coaching network, and the establishment of a nationwide platform that aggregates information on programmes, services, and mentors for women.
