Entrepreneurship and Financial Seminar

An entrepreneurship and financial empowerment seminar in the four corners of Botswana. Upon executing this project young people meet people who challenge them to look more into themselves and find out what is unique to them so that they can find their unique business proposition and start something that will eventually employ them and end up employing others. They are exposed to business mentorship and associations of young entrepreneurs: use them to handle available investment funds earmarked for start-ups/entrepreneurs, and promoting entrepreneurship associations at the local level.

Due to high unemployment rate of the target population there is inadequate information on health related issues as well as skills enhancement for employability and as such it provides learning through bad street language.
