Teens Going for Gold Returns with 2nd Edition of Teach a Teen Program

Teens Going for Gold Network, an organization dedicated to educating, empowering and inspiring teenagers, is set to embark on the second  edition of her Teach a Teen program. The program which primary objectives are to increase the quality of education and reduce poverty and unemployment rates in Nigeria, has two major components – the campaign and the training sessions.

The #TeachATeen campaign advocates for an educational curriculum and system that meets up with the needs, challenges and changes of the 21st century and a training while the training component focuses on freely providing opportunities that increase the entrepreneurial, vocational and leadership aptitudes of students in rural secondary schools.

 

In 2017, the program which had 147 beneficiaries in three cities was held in partnership with participants of the Young African Leaders Initiative RLC West Africa.

This year, the campaign will be held throughout the month of June whiles the training session will follow in the month of July. The training takes place in the Nigerian cities of Benin, Lagos and Ibadan. You can be a part of this program by joining the online campaign, volunteering for the training in secondary schools and partnering with us financially.

The Artistic Mind of a Criminal

I used to have a client who is a professor when it comes to art, paintings and antiques. He paints one portrait and makes millions out of it and that really fascinated me so much that I started doing some research into the Art, paintings and antiques industry. I discovered that the painting industry in Ghana is very small and young but elsewhere in the world, it is a huge industry which contributes significantly to the economy of these countries. The USA economy in 2014 and 2015 benefited US$730 billion and US$763.6 billion respectively from the Art, Paintings and Antiques sector(1). US$12 billion (£9.2 billion) was contributed to the UK GDP in 2016 from the Art and Painting sector(2) with Singapore’s Art and Painting contributing S$2.13 billion to the GDP in 2013(3).
