Gracy World Initiative Foundation (GWI) is set to organise “Project 1, 000,” a training seminar focused on Artificial Intelligence (AI) productivity skills and mental health resilience for students. The programme will hold on March 20, 2026 in Ikorodu, Lagos.
The Founder, Oreoluwa Grace Filani, said the initiative is designed to prepare young people for a fast-changing world shaped by technology and emotional challenges. According to her, “Project 1000 is about ensuring that the next generation isn’t surviving the system, but reforming it through technology and emotional intelligence.”
She explained that the seminar will equip 1,000 young scholars with practical AI-productivity skills alongside structured mental health support. “The training will transform the lives of 1,000 young scholars by empowering them with value AI-productivity skills, added with mental health support, thus proving to these students that their dreams are valid despite their circumstances and that no limitation can stop a focused mind,” Filani stated.
She added that the initiative aims to elevate Ikorodu’s profile. “The initiative will ultimately place Ikorodu on a global visibility scale, rewriting the local narrative from one of systemic vulnerability to a blueprint for world-class tech and innovation,” she said.
Filani further noted that GWI demonstrates that impactful social change can be achieved through strategic partnerships and a commitment to achieve the UN Sustainable Development Goal (SDG 4 and 17).
