NGO Jobs in Nigeria at Africare, 26th November 2014

Africare, Nigeria is set to implement two youth projects in Delta state, both with secondary school students:


The Youth Scholar-Athletes Development Project will support 300 students from five secondary schools and engage them in a school based program that develops skills in track and field events and supports academic excellence with a view to excelling in both areas to ensure competitiveness for admission to University programs. The project aims to empower Nigerian youth using track and field sports and prepare them for the future. The program is a two year program with expectation for further funding.

The Girls Peer Network (GPN) project will be a one year pilot training program for 240 girls in two secondary schools in Delta State, Nigeria aged 14 to 18 years. Utilizing a train- the- trainer model 40 selected secondary senior girls will co-create and administer educational sessions over one academic year for 200 junior secondary girls based on a needs assessment that identifies the key reasons for secondary non-completion. The program aims to promote knowledge in the short term and influence behavior in the longer term primarily among girls in the program.
