FBNQuest Merchant Bank, the investment banking and asset management subsidiary of FBN Holdings Plc, has partnered with the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) on its Youth-Powered Ecosystem to Advance Urban Adolescent Health programme being implemented by Development Alternatives, Inc (DAI) Nigeria in Lagos State.

 

The bank, in a statement, said it believes the initiative is one that would ultimately drive economic growth in Nigeria and equip young adults with life-long skills.

The Youth-Powered initiative will empower participants to broaden their outlook on their future plans providing them access to skills, social capital, and resources needed to realise their aspirations through training and mentorship.

The mentorship programme aims to improve the health and well-being of urban, low-income adolescents, between the ages of 15 and 19, by increasing voluntary family planning uptake, situating family planning holistically such that it encompasses enhancing youths with life skills for healthy living and future planning.

The partnership will also focus on fostering an enabling social and policy environment for adolescent health and development and increasing youth workforce readiness, job

FBNQuest Merchant Bank said, this is in line with its corporate responsibility and sustainability efforts, as it will continue to seek opportunities to give back to its community and that the USAID Youth-Powered Ecosystem programme presents the platform to achieve this goal.
