The Integrated Youth Economic Empowerment Program (IYEEP) is part of the transformation agenda and initiative of President Goodluck Jonathan administration, targeted at the teeming Nigeria youths between the ages of 18 and 35.
IYEEP is a strategic, integrated & information-based initiative for the empowerment of community and grassroots youths across Nigeria, the program is put in place as an essential tool that would promote leadership skills among the Youths through the implementation of deliberate and critical elements which include healthy behaviors, Socio-economic empowerment, skills acquisition, Self & individual community’s sustainability.
The program is to be deployed across the nation’s six (6) Geo-political zones in phases.

IYEEP is a Youth Transformation Initiative of President Goodluck Jonathan, spearheaded by the office of the special adviser to the president on youth empowerment Mr Obi Adim. The program will encourage young entrepreneurs to embrace innovative ideas, envision the impossible, and ultimately transform Nigeria.
IYEEP also believes that mentor-ship is the key in addressing the gaps currently preventing young entrepreneurs from successfully starting, scaling and sustaining businesses.

Therefore, the program is completely free of charge and available to all entrepreneurs regardless of their state of origin within the federation, from those only starting out with one brilliant idea to more established business owners.

The IYEEP platform allows these entrepreneurs to connect virtually with seasoned business leaders locally and globally for advice and guidance, part of the overall IYEEP initiative is to economically empower the Nigerian youth through the Mentor-ship Program, which provides incubation centers for SMEs and entrepreneurs who otherwise would not be able to afford professional office space.
The program further aims to provide comprehensive support services for the Youth through funding assistance for novel business ideas, incubation centers and workspace as well as continual business training.

Mission Statement

To facilitate and implement a strong community-based, grassroots youth economic empowerment initiative, across Nigeria, as an essential tool that promotes personal leadership among the Youths.
