πŸ”₯ Preparing Students for the 2026 FIRE Competition!

The -Africa team has completed the second phase of the FIRE Competition orientation at the prep school.

During the session, we introduced teachers to the different project categories and trained 10 teachers on how to mentor and guide students as they develop their projects for the 2026 .

The session was interactive, with teachers asking questions, sharing ideas, and gaining a better understanding of how the FIRE Competition works.

We also discussed the important role of and in preparing the next generation to solve problems, create solutions, and shape a better future.

We are excited to see the ideas these students will develop with the support of their teachers. πŸš€

WHO WE ARE ?

LESSAT-Africa is a and TVET working to build an Africa where every young person, especially girls, has the skills to shape their own future. We've sparked early interest in STEM careers for thousands of students across Liberia and Africa, turning curiosity into a career path through hands-on learning and mentorship.

We believe potential isn't determined by where you're born or what resources you start with, it's built, one trained mind, one student at a time.

THE FULL LINEUP. Episode 14. Ethiopia. Saturday 22 August.
HOUR 1, 10 AM Central. Awol Allo, Keele University School of Law, joining from the United Kingdom. The first hour looks at Ethiopia through the law, and at what accountability looks like from where he sits. Hour 1 runs with a single guest this week. We were not able to seat a second voice in time.
HOUR 2, 11 AM Central. Doris D. Myers, Founder and Executive Director of LESSAT Africa, joining from Monrovia, and Rufus J. Kwenah, Co-Founder of LESSAT Africa, joining from Iowa. The second hour turns to the diaspora and to community development. LESSAT Africa was founded in 2012 to open science and technology education to girls in Liberia. We ask what that work requires on the ground, how a small organization keeps it funded year to year, and what a diaspora led effort can and cannot deliver from outside the country.
