Millennium Fellowship Project: Teach A Kid, Build A Nation

This project aims to empower children (within the age range of five to fourteen years) with literacy, analytical and critical thinking skills. According to a recent report by the United Nation's International Children Emergency Fund (UNICEF), "even though primary education is officially free and compulsory, about 10.5 million of the country’s children aged 5-14 years are not in school". This shows that illiteracy is a prevalent problem in Nigeria, which has to be solved in order for the country to advance. During the course of this project we plan to empower young children with the above mentioned skills through regular campaigns on the importance of education, sharing of educational resources like textbooks, notebooks, sationeries in secondary and primary schools, organization of quizzes and competitons to stimulate the interest of children in education, reaching out to children in slums and organization of career talks to captivate the interest of children in Science, Arts, Business, Law, Humanities, Media, Technology e.t.c
