Worth checking yourself

  • !THIS IS AN ORGANISATION'S PLATFORM, NOT AN OPPORTUNITY. There is no application, no deadline, no selection, no cohort, no award and no place. Clicking Apply lands a young person on an account-creation screen. On LOT it is presented as something you can apply for, and it is not
  • !IT IS NOT A YOUTH OPPORTUNITY. No age criterion appears anywhere on the site. The audience is women entrepreneurs, producers and traders of any age, plus policymakers, buyers and investors
  • !No eligibility criteria of any kind are published, so a reader cannot tell whether they qualify
  • !What a member actually gets is never quantified. The homepage promises you can learn what opportunities you can apply for, but those opportunities are unnamed, undated and behind the login
  • !Two of the sub-pages a reader would naturally try both return 404 from their own navigation
  • !RECOMMENDATION: retire this record, or replace it with a specific, dated, youth-eligible programme that a young person can actually act on
