As part of its VISION2030 and mission to tackle root causes of global challenges, the World Subnationals Education Agency (WSEA) is excited to introduce the Poverty Eradication Education Program (PEEP) — a transformative initiative aimed at empowering students with the skills and knowledge needed to tackle poverty through entrepreneurship, trade, and community involvement.
Dr. Dominion V. Judah, President General of the World Subnationals and Nations (WSANDN), highlighted the importance of education in this critical effort, stating: "The right kind of education is key to poverty eradication. This Educational Program is to raise wealth creators who will become economic assets and job creators in their communities and nations."
Program Overview
PEEP encompasses distinct modules tailored to primary, secondary, and tertiary education levels, ensuring that students of all ages can engage in poverty eradication efforts.
This 10-week course is designed to inspire young pupils by fostering a mindset conducive to wealth creation and community engagement. Through interactive storytelling, hands-on activities, and discussions, students will learn foundational concepts of wealth and poverty, building a sense of empathy and responsibility.
Spanning 12 weeks, this module empowers high school students to understand local and international trade, industrialisation, and entrepreneurship. Utilising case studies from local businesses, students will learn practical skills that they can apply in real-world contexts, driving economic growth in their communities.
Also a 12-week initiative, this program equips university and college students with theoretical and practical knowledge related to poverty eradication through entrepreneurship and community engagement. By incorporating lessons on business development, financial literacy, and advocacy, students will be prepared to tackle economic challenges head-on.
