The two educational projects is targeting at over 10 million Nigeria children who are roaming the street and do not have the basic education from primary to at least junior secondary level.
The projects Nigeria Education First Initiative (NEFI) and Girls Next
Generation (GNG) are advocacy campaign geared toward ensuring that the
10.5 million out-of-school children are enrolled back to the classroom.
NEFI is a national advocacy campaign to mobilize thousands of Education
First Marshals, CSOs, NGOs, CBOs, policy makers, youth leaders, human
right lawyers, activists and the media across the country to ensure that
every Nigerian child is enrolled in school. The campaigners will work
with relevant government institutions and agencies like Ministry of
Education, Universal Basic Education Commission, National and State
House of Assembly, corporate organizations, private sectors, etc to
ensure that the UBE Act is fully implemented. Also, the GNG is to
respond to greater investment in the education of girl-child as
championed by the first lady of America, Michelle Obama with her #LetGirlsLearn and Sarah Brown, wife of UN Envoy on Education with her #AWorldatSchool Initiative.
Moreover, the NEFI and GNG Team will also collaborate with international organizations like #UNDP, #UNESCO, #World Bank, #GEFI, #USAID, etc for this projects to be successful.
We call on CSOs, organizations, groups and individual who are interested to partner with us to send their details to us through our email address: eaglebuildersfoundation@yahoo.com
Meanwhile, we condemn every attack on our school especially girls school which is aimed to put fear in them so as to continue to enslave the girl-child. Education is a right for every child and they should not be denied this right. We therefore call on government to put more investment in education to checkmate poverty and HIV/AIDS.
