Ghana - Paul’s story
At just 19, and together with friends, Paul started a mentoring programme for young people in low-income communities. They were eager to expand but lacked the skills and expertise to do so. Via his work placement in local enterprise Premium Precious Salt, Paul developed various skills including writing, project management, communication, and leadership. Most importantly, he notes, the Challenges team gave him confidence in his abilities. With his new insights, Paul now plans to expand his mentoring programme. He has also secured a full-time job.
