“GET A SISTER INTO SCHOOL” PROGRAM

Moremi Initiative started the Get-A-Sister-Into-School Program to support Fellows to pursue higher education. The program utilizes the experiences of Fellows and Mentors and is intended to facilitate the enrolment of Fellows into reputable institutions all over the globe and ensure that they are strategically positioned to benefit from the best quality education to equip them in their various professional endeavors. Through Get-a-Sister into School, we have created a vibrant network of scholars further equipped to advance the rights of women and girls, and the broader development of the African continent. The program leverages the experienced pool of Fellows that are already enrolled in such esteemed institutions and those who have since completed their studies. Examples of institutions where MILEAD Fellows have been accepted include Harvard University, Oxford University, University of Cambridge, UC Berkeley, Edinburgh Business School, University of Ghana, Alexandria University, University of Cape Town and Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine amongst others. Fellows have also received scholarships through the Chevening Scholars program, Oppenheimer Scholarship and the MasterCard Foundation Scholars program.
