HER Growth Mindset Cultivation
Welcome to the SWEEP 2026 TransformHER Webinar Series, a collaborative learning initiative designed to strengthen the capabilities of SWEEP student representatives and coordinators. Delivered by experienced practitioners, professional trainers, entrepreneurs, and educators from different countries, this series combines local expertise with global perspectives on entrepreneurship, leadership, and community impact. You can explore how local entrepreneurial opportunities connect to wider global markets while remaining grounded in South African realities and experiences. You will also engage in creative live scribing activities created by student graphic designers, who visually captured key ideas, discussions, and reflections, transforming key insights and discussions into visual reflections that capture the learning journey.
