Creating Opportunities, Building Resilience.

We believe true opportunity is built on three foundations: economic independence, personal wellbeing, and a powerful civic voice. Our initiatives are designed to work together, creating a holistic platform that equips youth and women with everything they need to build and lead their own futures.

Digital Skills & Innovation.

Our entire Digital Skills & Innovation pillar is powered by our flagship initiative: ThriveLab VISTA. With the vision of “Shaping Future Leaders, Innovators & AI-Powered Entrepreneurs,” this is our ambitious plan to train 6,000 youth across Nigeria over the next two years.

The Outcome: A national pipeline of skilled professionals and entrepreneurs who can thrive in the future of work.

Below are the Key Programs within ThriveLab VISTA

Social Inclusion & Wellbeing

Success is not built in a vacuum. It requires a foundation of safety, mental health, and belonging. We recognize that personal wellbeing is a critical prerequisite for professional and civic achievement.

We create safe, inclusive spaces where individuals can find support, build community, and access resources for their mental and emotional health. Our work in this area is centered on dignity, respect, and advancing gender equality.

The Outcome: Resilient individuals and stronger, more equitable communities where everyone has the support to thrive.

The Why: A community’s future is shaped by those who have a voice in its present. We work to ensure that the voices of youth and women are not just heard, but are influential in the civic life of their communities.

Our Approach: We move beyond theory to create practical platforms for leadership development and civic action. We equip emerging leaders with the skills, networks, and confidence to advocate for change and participate meaningfully in governance.

The Outcome: A new generation of active, informed, and influential citizens shaping a more just and responsive society.
