This project is to provide free and basic universal access to quality education and build 4 blocks of classroom for 1000 out of school children orphaned and displaced by conflicts in Benue State, Nigeria.
The 2019 TIV and Jukun conflict that took place in wukari, Taraba State rendered most children orphaned and displaced from their families. The Tiv ethnic nationality of Benue state flee from Taraba state and were repatriated and accommodated in an Internally Displaced Camp (IDP) in Ugba, under Logo, LGA. Lack of money by their parents due to poverty has made access to education difficult but with this initiative ,it will encourage parents to enroll their children in school.
According to UNICEF, 13million children of school age are not in school, therefore, the project will support the efforts of government in order to ensure children of school age are enroll in schools with increased retention and completion of studies especially, for girl child
The overarching goal of the project is to improve school performance, access and retention among vulnerable children and adolescents while ensuring that adolescents steer out of social vices including drug addicts, helping them get out of poverty and contribute their quota to national development.
