The JSSP- Tripoli Lb Hub’s pilot for education… and more!

 

Tailored and executed by Tripoli Lb Shapers, the Junior Shapers Scholarship Program  (JSSP) aims at preventing high-school students from dropping out and equipping them with prerequisite skills to reach the higher education with confidence. The program brings together youth from disenfranchised and historically rival communities in Tripoli through education and community engagement.

How:

  1. The Global Shapers run a set of Life Skills TOT topics re-implemented by the Junior Shapers. The latter are university students with preeminent leadership skills and records in community service. In view of that, the Junior Shapers are transferring these acquisitions to the high-school students who are investing their learning in community projects in Tripoli Lb city.
  2. The community projects encompass the contributions of Global, Junior Shapers and the high-school students through accompaniment and consecutive mentorship.
  3. Career Orientation targeting the High schoolers focusing on the latest university studies and bringing the youth the opportunity to meet experts in education, alumni and successful graduates to discuss available market opportunities and the latest jobs trends.
  4. The program also addresses the gap between local public schools and global education; it offers weekly English and IT classes to the high schoolers.
