"We realized material aid alone wasn't enough. Our research revealed that children from vulnerable backgrounds face deep 'Invisible Barriers'—trauma and low self-esteem—that block their potential before they reach the classroom."
— CODEWA Research Partnership with Dr. Pierre Rialland (University of Essex)
Prior to 2018, we provided pens and uniforms, yet academic performance remained low. Our partnership with Dr. Pierre Rialland (University of Essex) revealed that trauma and low self-esteem were the "Invisible Barriers" blocking potential.
"We realized that giving a child a pen without giving them a vision for their future is only half the battle. Our seminars became the 'missing link' that turned supplies into success."
— CODEWA Strategic Framework
"Material aid doesn't fix low self-esteem or trauma."
Launched Mentorship Seminars to rebuild confidence.
"Role models are the fastest way to change behavior."
Brought Professionals into schools at national scale.
"Mentorship creates lifelong economic resilience."
First Mentored students graduate as University leaders.
Our Mentorship & Inspiration Seminars are built on four foundational shifts in a student's internal narrative.
Cultivating Self-Belief by replacing "I can't" with a growth mindset, helping students realize their intelligence is not fixed.
Instilling Integrity and social responsibility, teaching youth that true leadership begins with character and ethics.
Expanding the sense of Possibility by connecting students with professionals, making distant dreams feel achievable.
Promoting Equity by dismantling harmful gender and class stereotypes that limit a child's academic ambition.
Our Theory of Change: How we convert internal confidence into external excellence.
Role models deconstruct "Invisible Barriers" and trauma.
Self-belief replaces fear. Ambition becomes a choice.
Grades soar as students find a reason to study.
Graduating as leaders who break the poverty cycle.
"When I stand before these students, I see myself 20 years ago. Showing them that their current struggle isn't their final destination is the most powerful tool we have."
"Before CODEWA, school was just a chore. After the seminars, I realized that my background wasn't a cage—it was a starting line. Now, I am heading to University."
Our structured, repeatable process bridges the gap between current struggle and future success — week by week.
Each week, we bring extraordinary professionals from the same communities as our students to share lived experiences of resilience, making achievement feel possible, not distant.
Inspiration is followed by action. Through small-group and 1-on-1 sessions, students receive personal guidance to build self-belief and replace limiting narratives with purpose.
By delivering seminars directly inside schools and universities, we keep youth focused, ethical, and protected from distractions that threaten their academic and personal growth.
Behind every story is measurable progress. These numbers reflect the scale, consistency, and academic transformation driven by our Mentorship & Inspiration Seminars.
Support CODEWA today — empower children and youth to overcome invisible barriers and achieve their dreams. Your contribution, time, or partnership makes a measurable difference.
