In line with its vision of empowering the girl-child through education, engagement, entrepreneurship, and innovative skills, the Gender Education, Engagement, Empowerment and Entrepreneurship Program (G4EP) has announced the launch of a transformative training initiative for young girls across Nigeria.
Anchored under the RISE Project – Renewed Hope for Inclusion, Support and Empowerment, this flagship programme is designed to align with the Federal Government’s Renewed Hope Agenda. By creating opportunities for girls to acquire creative and digital skills, the initiative reflects government’s commitment to building an inclusive society where no one is left behind.
The training will focus on Photography, Web Design, Cinematography, and Graphic Design, four critical areas in today’s creative and digital economy. Through this, G4EP seeks to bridge the gender gap in technology and media while equipping participants to become creators, innovators, and leaders.
Speaking on the initiative, Hon. Dr. Mrs. Judith Mayen Ogbara, Chairman of G4EP, stated:
“The RISE Project is a direct response to the President’s Renewed Hope Program. It is about inclusion, empowerment, and creating pathways for the girl child to rise above limitations. Through this training, we are preparing girls to compete globally in technology, creativity, and entrepreneurship.”
With this launch, G4EP reinforces its unwavering commitment to the empowerment of girls in Nigeria, preparing a new generation of storytellers, innovators, and entrepreneurs who will shape the future.
Registration is now open via the official G4EP training portal. Selected participants will receive mentorship, hands-on sessions, and access to industry-standard resources throughout the programme.
