Foundation Launches Tech-230 Programme For Youths In Rivers

In line with her vision and mission of empowering young people with necessary skills needed for self-development and economic sustainability, the Chukwudi Dimkpa Foundation is launching a “Tech-230 Project” in Rivers State.

The free training is a transformative initiative aimed at equipping 230 youths in Rivers State with essential skills in tech-related areas that would enable them contribute to the vast global technology ecosystem and empower them for economic self-sustainability.

The Chukwudi Dimkpa Foundation Tech-230 Project aligns with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDG Goal 8 regarding decent work and economic growth).

It is designed to equip and keep our youths up to speed with the ever-evolving landscape of technology and innovation to promote sustainable economic growth along with full and productive employment.

The foundation stands as a beacon of hope, embodying a non-political and non-governmental commitment to uplifting communities and individuals facing economic and social challenges.

This Tech-230 Project which will last for three months, will be flagged off at ‘Tech-Up Port Harcourt’ gathering today after which registration commences on the foundation’s website.

The foundation will train 230 lucky beneficiaries from across the 23 LGAs of Rivers State, including non-indigenes residents in Rivers, after going through a meticulous selection process facilitated by a reputable Tech Hub that will ensure transparency and quality in the development of these in-demand skills.

As a foundation, they are focused on addressing issues as poverty, education, healthcare, environmental sustainability and community development, and since establishment, they have been dedicated to creating positive and sustainable impacts in these areas.
