About the organization
Al Sudaniya Mentoring (ASM) is an initiative that was established in 2013 to empower, engage, and inspire young Sudanese women to develop their personal and professional skills to become pioneering leaders of the future. The ASM programme was set up as a result of Mai Khidir’s participation in the Milead fellowship run by the Moremi initiative. An integral part of this fellowship is to design and implement life changing projects in each fellow’s country of origin. Mai felt strongly that a project that involved building the confidence and personal and professional skills of young Sudanese women so that they have the courage to pursue their goals was very much needed in Sudan. A discussion sparked up with participants in the Milead programme was the inspiration to create this initiative.
