At AtP we inspire to aspire…to motivate, challenge and support the youth through quality education, research, skills training, personal development and entrepreneurship to think big and aim high as well as conceive and believe in order to achieve their ultimate (intellectually, professionally, et cetera) in school, in life for the benefit of not only themselves and their families, but also, their communities and society at large.
We envision a day when all youth/persons, wherever they are and whatever their backgrounds, will gain access to good quality education, equal opportunities, entrepreneurship, unlock their potential and develop as peaceful and positive-minded people who realise their dreams by attaining the peak in whatever endeavour they undertake for their own and society’s benefit.
It is driven by the philosophy that the provision of appropriate motivation and tools in a conducive environment to individuals, irrespective of backgrounds, will enable them to think big and aim high, unlock and fulfil their diverse potentials, and achieve their ultimate goals in life as well as live in peace and harmony with others for the benefit of society.
Personal experiences of educational challenges that undermine educational access, quality and outcomes and have the potential to cause conflict and undermine peace
Many discussions and interactions with parents, community leaders and the youth themselves about the challenges they face at school and the burning desire to help address them
Belief in social justice and fairness, and the desire to address inequalities in society
Attaining the Peak (AtP) is a response to some of the motivational, inspirational, educational, mentoring, entrepreneurial and empowerment needs of the youth. It is about “lifting a person’s hope and vision to higher sights; raising a person’s performance to a higher standard; and building a personality beyond its normal limitation”. AtP is an initiative which promotes educational access, quality education, technical & vocational education, peace education, entrepreneurship and empowerment among the youth for a peaceful and progressive society. AtP founded by Emefa Amoako began in Oxford, UK as a community-based educational enrichment programme, and a student club.
“These people helped me to believe in my dreams and I know that I could fulfil my destiny if I wanted to. I now know that the only thing that is stopping me from doing this is myself because as Napoleon Hill said ‘what the mind of a (wo)man can conceive and believe, the mind of a (wo)man can achieve.”
