Our mission is clear: to empower and recruit 10,000 Grassroot Development Champions, who will spearhead efforts for a sustainable future and make a positive impact on both the environment and social development.
In this regard, we are thrilled to announce our partnership with the Z-zurich foundation. Together, we are embarking on a journey to combat Climate Change Adaptation, enhance flood resilience in Nigeria, and promote She STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics) education.
Climate change impacts every corner of the globe, and Nigeria is no exception. Rising sea levels, extreme weather events, and erratic rainfall patterns pose significant threats to communities, especially those in vulnerable areas. Through this partnership, we aim to bolster climate change adaptation strategies and enhance flood resilience in Nigeria. Together, we will engage with local communities, policymakers, and experts to implement sustainable solutions that can safeguard lives and livelihoods from the adverse effects of climate change.
A key pillar of this partnership is the promotion of She STEM – this is geared towards enrolling girls into STEM courses and careers. We firmly believe that empowering young girls with STEM education is not only a matter of gender equality but also a vital step towards driving sustainable development in Nigeria. By breaking down barriers and encouraging girls to embrace STEM fields, we open doors to innovation, creativity, and problem-solving that are crucial in tackling the challenges of today and tomorrow.
Central to this initiative is the recruitment and empowerment of 10,000 Grassroot Development Champions. These champions will be the driving force behind the positive changes we seek to bring about. By working closely with communities, local organizations, and schools, our champions will foster awareness, inspire action, and implement projects that tackle climate change and promote She STEM. We firmly believe that change starts at the grassroots level, and with our dedicated GDCs, we can create a cascading effect that reaches every corner of Nigeria.
The partnership between @zzurichfoundation and @dotakeaction is not just about rhetoric; it’s about real action, tangible results, and lasting impact. We invite everyone to join us on this transformative journey. Whether you’re a student, a professional, an environmental enthusiast, or a supporter of gender equality, your support matters. Together, we can drive sustainable development in Nigeria, combat climate change, and create a future where every girl has an equal opportunity to thrive in STEM fields.
Follow us closely as we share inspiring stories, updates on our projects, and opportunities to get involved. Let’s shape a sustainable and inclusive future for Nigeria.
