The Brave Foundation, Tracy Owusu-Addo, has partnered with Re-Think Investment to organise the National Youth Investment Conference.

The collaboration was orchestrated by Project Brave, which is dedicated to forging connections, inspiring, and empowering Ghanaian youth through practical training and economic advocacy.

The conference, which took place on August 26, 2023, at the Prof. Kofi Anyidoho Auditorium on the UHAS campus, focused on the theme 'Knowledge, Income and Impact’.

The gathering sought to enlighten young participants on key areas including economics, finance, entrepreneurship, and investment.

In her address, Mrs. Owusu-Addo said the conference's overarching goal is to equip the youth with the knowledge and skills vital for making astute financial decisions, embarking on entrepreneurial ventures, and playing a role in the nation’s economic progress.

"Understanding the value of a long-term approach to financial health is paramount," she said, urging young individuals to recognise the advantages of early investments.

With over 200 participants, the National Youth Investment Conference made intricate economic theories and financial strategies accessible to its young audience.

The sessions equipped attendees with a grasp of budgeting, savings, investments, debt management, and a myriad of essential financial competencies.
