The initiative aims to bridge the skills gap and provide quality training to young people, making them more employable.
The launch event in Lagos was attended by high-profile individuals, including the Deputy British High Commissioner to Nigeria.
The Prince’s Trust International, founded by King Charles, has been helping young people gain the necessary skills for the workforce for the past 18 months.
The initiative was initially planned to start after King Charles’ visit to Nigeria in 2018 but was delayed due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
The Prince’s Trust International has a mission to tackle the global youth unemployment crisis and has partnered with local organizations in Nigeria and Ghana.
The launch of the initiative in Nigeria is expected to bring about positive changes and development in the country, considering that 60% of Nigeria’s population is youth.
