Over 300 students, along with teachers and par­ents, from 10 basic and senior high schools in Takoradi, the Western Regional capital, on Friday participated in a programme that seeks to inspire young girls to pursue careers in traditionally-dom­inated fields.

The event, hosted at Fijai Senior High School, was on the theme: 'Girls' Vision for the Future.' It was held in commemoration of the In­ternational Day of the Girl Child.

Karpowership Ghana, in collab­oration with the Ghana Education Service, the Ministry of Gender, Children and Social Protection and Technical, Vocational Education and Training (TVET) Services organised the event.

The programme featured presen­tations from guest speakers, hands-on demonstrations by students studying TVET-related courses, and mentorship breakout sessions with professionals.
