Today is our first outreach day. 🧵
Free Pathway Guides going into secondary schools in Ibadan right now.
Here's what that means and why we started HERizon & Beyond. 👇🏾
3. 4 tracks: Creative Arts & Media · Tech & Digital · Trades & Craft · Entrepreneurship.
Every student who receives one today gets a 30-day action plan they can start tonight.
3. Here's what we've learned building HERizon & Beyond: for most people we'll work with, the trauma and the economic exclusion aren't two separate problems. They feed each other.
That's the gap we exist to close. #SDG4#SDG5
From childhood, Nigerian kids are handed one story: become a doctor, lawyer, or engineer. When those 3 doors close (money, grades, family collapse, trauma) most are left with no map. 🧵
2. At the same time, gender-based violence continues at a scale most people can't fully sit with. Survivors are expected to heal quietly and rejoin a world that rarely offers gentleness.
Beyond: everyone else the system has excluded. No gender is the whole story.
We're not registered. We're not funded. We're 6 people who believe the people this society has overlooked deserve real investment — not charity, infrastructure.
Follow the build. #SDG4#SDG5
HER is the beginning. Beyond is everyone who comes next.
Introducing HERizon & Beyond, a new Nigerian initiative for the people opportunity keeps skipping. 🧵
HER: young women, girls, survivors of gender-based violence.
Statistically and historically, that's where the gap is deepest, so that's where we start.
