At AGYW Health and Wellness Alliance, our Leadership and Mentorship Programs are designed to build leadership skills, confidence, and decision-making abilities in adolescent girls and young women, including young mothers, up to the age of 25. Through our leadership training workshops, we focus on essential skills like effective communication, public speaking, and teamwork. These workshops are interactive, allowing participants to practice these skills in a supportive environment, building the self-confidence needed to navigate leadership roles both in their personal lives and communities. We also run a peer mentorship program, where older girls or young mothers mentor younger participants, offering guidance, support, and real-life advice on challenges they may face. This fosters a sense of sisterhood and shared experience, empowering younger girls to learn from their peers. Our participants are also given opportunities to take on leadership roles within group projects and community events, allowing them to apply what they’ve learned in real-world settings. To further inspire them, we host guest speaker events and panels featuring successful women from diverse fields, including entrepreneurs, activists, and professionals, who share their journeys and provide valuable insights into leadership. These programs create a strong foundation for young women to grow into confident, capable leaders ready to make a positive impact in their communities.
