Where does the Journey to the Future Begins? In my journey as the Programs Lead for the Africa Teen Tech Festival (ATTF), It’s been privileged to witness firsthand the power of technology to transform lives. ATTF is not just an event; it's the heartbeat of a movement dedicated to unlocking the potential of African youth, empowering them to become the architects of their future. This festival, which has rapidly grown into a cornerstone event across the continent, is a vibrant testament to what happens when young minds are given the tools to innovate and lead. Each year, we gather in a celebration of technology, creativity, and innovation, aiming not only to educate but to inspire. Our mission is grounded in four pillars: Education, Innovation, Collaboration , and Diversity. We're not just teaching coding or robotics; we're fostering an environment where young innovators can connect with industry leaders, where they're encouraged to dream big and create even bigger. From immersive workshops to inspiring challenges, ATTF is a launchpad for tomorrow's leaders. As we gear up for ATTF2024, themed: Future Skills Forum: Equipping Teens for the Future Workforce and Entrepreneurship, I'm more excited than ever. This isn't just another event. It's a clarion call to join us in shaping a future where technology is a force for good, where every young African has the skills, confidence, and opportunities to thrive. The future of Africa is being written by its youth, and the pen is in our hands. As I continue my mission to empower young people in tech, I invite you to be part of this journey. ATTF 2024 is not just an opportunity to witness innovation; it's an invitation to contribute to a movement that's building brighter futures, one tech breakthrough at a time. https://lnkd.in/dGwfCnHC Join us on June 28th, 2024, at Lagos' iconic Landmark Event Centre. Together, let's inspire, empower, and transform. The future awaits, and it's promising. Be part of building it with us. #ATTF2024 #BuildingTheNew #innovation #FutureSkillsForum #AfricaTeenTechFestival

My first pitch and my first mentors I was SUPER nervous when doing my first pitch in Youth Digital Citizen Challenge 2022. Just a few months back, my entire team didn't even know what pitching was. kaka. We were drowning in a sea of 80 PowerPoint slides, wondering how on earth we'd fit all that into a short 5-minute pitch. Thanks to the support and guidance from the Youth Co:Lab (UNDP) mentorship, I made my first pitch. The key is to just tell your own story - that's what makes you special in the eyes of investors: Your impact journey. I've grown so much since then. My teammates have grown up, too. I'll never forget the valuable mentorship I received from Ms. Trang, Ms. Yen, Ms. Linh, Mr. An, Mr. Thanh, Mr. Kiem, Mr.Truong, Mr. Duy, all my lovely mentors in Hanoi. Now, when my own students go on their journeys to compete in global tech and entrepreneurship competition for girls in the US, I always share my story with my little friends. I tell girls about the advice my mentors gave me when I made my first pitch: "All you need is creativity, willingness to work, passion for your idea and tell your own story. Your pitching will be OK!" Let’s motivate each other! #SkillUpRiseUp" From Youth Co:lab and UNDP mentors ------------------------------------ The Skill Our Future, jointly led by UNDP in Asia and the Pacific and other partners, aims to create digital pathways for youth to not only support their employability but also enable them to thrive as globally engaged citizens, contributing to the sustainable development of their communities and beyond. With a marked focus on providing opportunities for youth from underserved communities, the program equips young people with the necessary 21st-century and digital skills they need to prepare for the future of work.
