IBILE Youth Academy, A Lagos State Youth Leadership Initiative
Brief on IBILE Youth Academy.
Lagos State Youth Leadership Initiative also known as IBILE Youth Academy is an annual Youth Leadership Training platform which was established to inculcate in the youth the virtues of citizenship, leadership and volunteerism and to ignite young people's personal development and transformation required for bright future and community development.
The programme usually starts with 5 days intensive leadership training across five Divisions of the State for 100 participants. The best 10 participants are selected from each Division for another 7 days residential training camp to further build their capacities as leaders. At the end of this rigorous process, the best participant emerges as the State Youth Ambassador while the next best 5 participants emerge as Divisional Ambassadors.
These Ambassadors are charged with the responsibilities of implementing pet projects in their various communities which should impact positively on young people.
