Echanger des idées claires avec les autres jeunes le plan international
In my community, I've observed a pressing need for support and empowerment of young people who often lack access to crucial opportunities. To address this, I've initiated mentorship programs offering valuable guidance and advice to navigate educational and career journeys. Additionally, I've organized skill development workshops within my club, the English Performance Arts Society, equipping young individuals with practical skills to enhance employability and entrepreneurial potential. Recognizing the significance of education, I've worked to improve access to quality resources and facilities for disadvantaged youth. I've also incorporated management and leadership styles into my English language program to foster holistic development. Furthermore, I've facilitated networking opportunities, connecting young individuals with professionals across diverse fields, fostering connections that open doors to future opportunities. By focusing on the needs of our youth and providing support, guidance, and opportunities, my goal is to contribute to their personal growth and create a brighter future for both them and our entire community. The influences in my life have profoundly shaped my journey, guiding me towards a path of personal growth, leadership, and community impact. The diverse experiences I've engaged in, coupled with my commitment to volunteer work, have collectively molded me into a well-rounded individual ready to contribute to career development and beyond. Then, as a Volunteer English teacher, I immersed myself in an educational setting, nurturing a passion for teaching and learning. This experience exposed me to the transformative power of education, igniting my desire to play a role in shaping others' futures. Teaching not only improved my communication and empathy but also instilled in me the significance of imparting knowledge to foster growth and development. In my role as an assistant at American Corner Maradi, I embraced multifaceted responsibilities that ranged from event organization to library and registration management. This role required me to wear multiple hats, refining my organizational and multitasking abilities. The exposure to cross-functional tasks taught me the importance of adaptability, strategic planning, and teamwork—a blend of skills vital for a successful career development journey. In one hand, my leadership role in the Club English Performance Arts Society highlighted my knack for innovation and creativity. Through organizing events and managing various aspects of the club, I developed skills in problem-solving and decision-making. These experiences provided a platform to harness my artistic inclinations while sharpening my management acumen—an invaluable combination that I intend to leverage in my career pursuits. A pivotal shift occurred when I transitioned to the field of petroleum and gas as a Health Safety Security and Environment assistant. This role demanded precision, diligence, and a strong sense of responsibility. The exposure to safety regulations and risk management taught me the gravity of attention to detail and proactive measures. This background equipped me with skills that can be directly applied to career development, where adherence to quality standards and mitigation of risks are of paramount importance. In the other hand, my involvement in the Yali Network's online training sessions exposed me to diverse perspectives and global challenges. Learning about youth leadership, entrepreneurship, and disinformation broadened my understanding of the world's complexities. These insights furthered my commitment to addressing societal issues and contributing positively. The training from OPEN enhanced my English proficiency, which is pivotal for effective communication and professional growth. And, the Harvard University Aspire Institute Program underscored my thirst for learning and self-improvement. Engaging in online leadership training affirmed my determination to pursue excellence and embody leadership principles. This experience reinforced the idea that growth is an ongoing journey, and embracing opportunities for learning is essential for career development.

I organized a mental health awareness outreach program for students in my school and community, where I discussed the significance of mental health and the importance of taking care of it.  I have advocated for sustainable development goals in my community by conducting advocacy outreach at schools, where I discussed the seventeen sustainable development goals and the roles they can play in achieving them. I founded Voice for Health, a project which focuses on creating awareness of causes such as mental health.

I enjoy participating in projects that have a positive impact on the lives of individuals.
