Heri-zon Series

hosted By: Mariamawit A.

Program For Ages: 20 to 29 Years Old.

Our women-only youth workshop offers a supportive third space for young women to explore personal growth, career development, and community building. Through a variety of engaging activities such as arts workshops, physical exercises, and skill-building sessions, participants gain confidence, learn practical skills, and connect with mentors and peers. The workshop fosters empowerment, creativity, and holistic well-being, preparing young women to navigate challenges, pursue their aspirations, and thrive in both personal and professional spheres.

Addressing Community Needs:

Our Herizon workshop series will address the need for a third space in the East African community, especially for women. This third space will act as a catalyst for empowerment by offering opportunities for leadership roles, mentorship, and networking within the community. It encourages women to take ownership of their narratives, challenge stereotypes, and advocate for their rights and aspirations. By nurturing a sense of belonging and inclusivity, this space fosters resilience and confidence among its participants. We will be using this space to foster a safe, welcoming, and inclusive environment where participants can learn from each other, share ideas, express themselves, and develop their entire selves.
