Raising a Generation for Purpose, Leadership, and Impact
Raising a Generation for Purpose, Leadership, and Impact
At the heart of every transformed society is a generation of young people who were seen early, guided intentionally, and empowered to believe that their lives matter.
This is the heartbeat behind the Becoming Empowerment Program, the annual flagship youth development initiative of the Youth Health and Life Skills Development Initiative (YHLDI), founded by Dr. Yetunde Winifred Olagbuji.
More than just an event, the Becoming Empowerment Program is a movement of awakening, leadership, healing, mentorship, and possibility. It was birthed out of a deep and unwavering conviction that adolescents and young people must not be left to navigate the complexities of life without the knowledge, support, values, and opportunities they need to thrive.
Every edition of the program is carefully designed to do one thing:
stir greatness, shape identity, and awaken purpose in the lives of young people.
And in 2025 and 2026, that vision found powerful expression.
