Mental Grooming: My Perspective on the Teens Hub for IYD 2020 by OBOMO EKI-ALLEN

Teens Voices: Testimonial from Teens Hub

by OBOMO EKI-ALLEN

In Teens Hub, I've learnt a lot personally about certain topics. First of all, I got an eye opener on the topic of rape, which talked about the dangers and what we can do individually to stop the menace.

Also, I learnt so much from the book on "Sign Posts on the Road to Success" by E.W. Kenyon, which talked about training yourself to become successful and keeping at it. The discussions in the billionaire class tagged "Wealth Series" really taught me a lot on what being rich actually means and how to attain it.

With all these and more, Teens Hub has helped to groom me mentally and I'm happy to be a part of it.

Saving Hand Development Initiative (SHADE-IN) was represented at the Conference by Bliss Ojeruse, Executive Director, who participated virtually. Background Against the backdrop of the resolution reached at the inaugural national conference held in September 2022, the steering committee on civil society regulatory environment was saddled with the task of working closely with development partners to institutionalise the national civil society conference as an annual event to sustain and track progress made in improving the civic society operational environment in Nigeria.

To invest in people, prioritize education - International Day of Education

To invest in people, prioritize education. This is the theme for the 2023 international day of education. This statement is in all sense factual and this is why Saving Hand Development Initiative (SHADE-IN) prioritises education. One of our children whom we reached out to in a community settlement in 2010 and have supported through his university education just graduated as a Civil Engineer in December, 2022. Recently, one of us was reached by one of our children who has not been able to further his education because of lack of funds. There are so many children who are in this situation in Nigeria. In seven years from this year, the sustainable development goals (SDGs) are meant to be achieved. But how far have we gone in achieving it? Let's start with Goal 1, "No Poverty." Rather than this, it appears that there is an increased poverty rate. In Nigeria for instance, you do not need to read the statistics to know that hunger is in the land as a result of extreme poverty.

About Changed Teachers Conference (CTC)

Changed Teachers Conference (CTC) is a Conference of teachers geared towards raising Role Models, Mentors and Change Drivers among Teachers who will in turn effect change in their schools, community, and the education system as a whole beginning from themselves. It is a one of SHADE-IN's programmes aimed at effecting lasting transformation in schools especially Public schools in Nigeria. It is born out of the need to implement change in the school system using the Community Health Evangelism (CHE) model, which involves the community (in this case, the school), driving her own change. The maiden edition of the Conference seeks to validate the school's result of the survey conducted by SHADE-IN in some public secondary schools in Benin City. A visit to many public secondary schools in this city will reveal the need for this programme. The details of the programme are as follows: Theme: Change Drivers for Education Transformation Date: 29th March, 201
