social enterprise competitions

Hi all,


It's being quite a while.
Missed everyone.

There is quite a whole lot of information and resources out there for us to learn from.
Each time i search online i come across quite a lot of information that at times i become confused.


On this blog ,i will aslo be providing information from time to time for ambitious young people who have a
desire to make an impact in their local communities ,country and the world at large.

This i hope will bridge the information gap among young people.I believe that by providing the appropriate information and opportunities young people will have a greater impact and better develop their capacities.

In today’s world there’s a whole host of information out there that focuses on youth development and we intend making this information more easily accessible.

Sorry this information is coming late;
