Abdirahman Abdirahman

I am an IT professional interested in getting more involved in community work.

A Day in the Life

A Day in the Life gives racialized high school students in Ottawa the opportunity to step beyond the classroom and explore careers and possibilities firsthand. Through hands-on workshops, workplace visits, and meaningful connections with professionals, youth gain real-world exposure, discover diverse career pathways, and build confidence in their future.

About this Project

Communities Served

My project will involve and/or impact the following communities:

    United Nations Sustainable Development Goals

    When it comes to community impact projects, the UN has created 17 Sustainable Development Goals. These are the Sustainable Development Goals associated with my project.

      How the project works

      Over the course of a few months, youth will gather on Saturdays to participate in either a site visit or a workshop. Professionals from a variety of fields including healthcare, science, technology, trades, and business will provide the youth with experiences and teach them about their professions.
