GOALPrime Organisation Nigeria (GPON) visited Anka LGA, Zamfara State, to lay the foundation for its transformative education program. During the visit, the team recognized the pressing challenges in the region and reaffirmed their commitment to providing quality education to children in IDP camps. This milestone visit fostered a strong partnership between GPON and the local community. The team held productive meetings with key stakeholders, including the Education Secretary and DSS Director, to discuss strategic plans and secure community support. Highlights of the Visit * New Emir Palace IDP Camp: Home to over 600 children, the majority of whom are currently out of school. * Girls Focal Primary School/Genu Camp: A unique blend of a school and IDP camp, where over 60 children still face barriers to education. GPON remains dedicated to ensuring that no child is left behind. Together, we can create a future where every child has access to quality education.

This commitment would be in seeking and building relationships with the alumni associations, asking questions, and collaborating with the association to ensure that the Nigeria child has access to excellent education. #TeachForNigeria #TFNImpactStories #TFNLeaders #TFN2022Fellows #TFNSchoolLeaders #TFN2024Graduation #TFN2024GraduationCountdown

In rural West Africa, the rate of out-of-school children is high and delayed entry to primary school is common, particularly for girls. Using the randomized roll-out of a large-scale unconditional cash transfer program in Mali, this new study by Fidele Eric Sessou, Melissa Hidrobo, Shalini Roy, and Lieven Huybregts examined its impact on child schooling: https://lnkd.in/ewiStxxc CGIAR IFPRI Africa

"Education is a Universal Right, Not a Privilege." In many rural parts of Nigeria, children face immense challenges in accessing quality education. Lack of infrastructure, insufficient teaching materials, and a shortage of qualified teachers are just a few of the obstacles that stand in their way. This stark reality is in sharp contrast to other parts of the world, where students have access to modern facilities, well-trained educators, and abundant resources. While students in developed countries enjoy the benefits of technology-enhanced learning and diverse educational opportunities, many Nigerian children struggle in overcrowded classrooms, if they have classrooms at all. The gap in educational quality not only hinders the personal development of these children but also stunts the potential growth of our nation. Education is a fundamental human right. It should not be determined by one's geographical location or economic background. We must advocate for policies that ensure every child in Nigeria, regardless of where they live, has access to quality education. Join us in demanding better infrastructure, more resources, and skilled teachers for rural schools. Let's bridge the educational divide and give every Nigerian child the future they deserve. Take action today: Sign the petition for educational reform in rural Nigeria. Together, we can make a difference. https://chng.it/FNh8sy7m2Y #QualityEducation #EducationForAll #BetterFuture #JedChildTrust #UNICEF #SDGs
