The GoodHope Women Flourish Initiative (GHWFI) is proud to announce the Imo State Female Students Empowerment Programme in celebration of International Women’s Day 2026. Applications are now open for eligible female students across the state.
GHWFI, founded by Her Excellency, Barr. Chioma Uzodimma, the First Lady of Imo State, is implementing this Women’s Month empowerment programme to support women and girls through practical skills acquisition training, mentorship, and selected livelihood support. The initiative is designed to help young women build confidence, develop relevant skills, and prepare for greater opportunities in the future.
Participants will benefit from structured skills acquisition training in selected areas, mentorship from experienced and accomplished women, and livelihood support for selected beneficiaries. Through these components, students will gain practical knowledge, guidance, and support that can positively influence their academic, personal, and professional development.
The programme is open to female students of Imo State University Owerri (IMSU), Federal University of Technology Owerri (FUTO), Federal Polytechnic Nekede (FEDPONEK), Alvan Ikoku Federal College of Education (ALVAN), Imo State Polytechnic, Omuma, Orlu (IMOPOLY), and the University of Agriculture and Environmental Sciences, Umuagwo (UMUAGWO), as well as other eligible female students across the 27 Local Government Areas of Imo State.
Applicants must be at least 16 years old at the time of application. Only one entry is allowed per student, as multiple submissions will lead to disqualification.
Beneficiaries will be shortlisted based on eligibility criteria and an equitable distribution across all Local Government Areas and zones in the state to ensure fairness and broad participation. Submission of an application does not guarantee automatic selection.
This is a valuable opportunity for female students in Imo State to gain relevant skills, connect with inspiring mentors, and access support that can help them build a stronger future.
