Laureus Engaging Learners through Exploration, Capacity-building & Training (ELECT) is a 6-month weekly In-school Empowerment Programme, geared towards Gr. 10-12 learners as they are in the final phase of their High School Education. Having proper support, safe spaces with access to positive role models is critical as learners are entering the 'emerging adult' age group, where it becomes crucial for learners to understand the importance of their actions, their influences, their behaviours, and to be made aware of the responsibility and repercussions that comes with decisions and actions taken in the heat of the moment. These poor decisions are often a slippery slope in communities where teenagers often feel unsupported, overlooked, and disempowered.
