What happens when young minds are given the space to dream and the tools to build those dreams?
Project Dream Big 2026 (PDB) at Federal Technical College, Yaba was more than a training; it was a moment of awakening.
This year, Project Dream Big in collaboration with
@weareawec reached over 700 participants across multiple engagements, including students, teachers, and artisans, through conversations centered on entrepreneurship, creativity, and turning ideas into income.
One of the highlights was our session at Federal Technical College, Yaba, where about 600 participants gathered in one room, eager to learn, pitch, ask questions, and imagine new possibilities for their future. We also had the privilege of engaging students and teachers at Chrisfield Private Schools, continuing the conversation around innovation, problem-solving, and dreaming bigger.
One student shared: “I never knew my skills could become a business. Now I am equipped to turn my ideas into something tangible and make income from it”
This impact was made possible by so many people.
Thank you to our speakers
