The Global
Youth Innovation Network (GYIN) Gambia chapter- www.gyingambia.gm will on Saturday, 16th
March, 2019 hold a graduation ceremony for 50 (fifty) young people who
undergone its six months Youth Mentorship Programme on Enterprise Management.
The
graduation ceremony, which will be held at the Agricultural Rural Farmers’
Training Center in Jenoi, Lower River Region (LRR), is the second batch of GYIN
Gambia’s coaching and mentoring programme.
Funded
solely by the Youth Empowerment Project (YEP)- www.yep.gm, the Youth Mentorship Programme on
Enterprise Management has been designed to provide support for the mentees on Understanding
business ecosystem, Banking and finance, Applying grants and loans as well as Records
keeping.
The aim of
the programme is to boost Gambian rural entrepreneurship and agribusiness as it
supports young people in their efforts to establish sustainable investments in
order to become self-reliant. It is anchored on coaching and career counseling
rather than the single method of structured trainings.
The event
will bring together dignitaries from various ministries, partners including YEP
and Nema Project, Gambia Youth Chamber of Commerce (GYCC), Start-Up Incubator
Gambia (SIG), Sterling Consortium amongst a host of others.
The LRR
Governor will also grace the occasion and deliver words of wisdom to the
graduates. The Chairman of the Mansakonko Area Council, Mr. Landing B. Sanneh
will serve as the Guest Speaker of the graduation ceremony.
Certificates
of merit and completion will be awarded to deserving mentees who perform
extremely well during the course of the six months mentorship programmes.
Furthermore,
certificates of Appreciation will also be given to development partners in
recognition of their long-term support financially, logistically and technically
to GYIN Gambia.
