VSO - Voluntary Service Overseas Nigeria

VSO Nigeria works to improve the existing systems and structures that play a crucial role in preparing young people to prosper. We are also harnessing youth power and innovation, along with the spirit of volunteerism to deliver new and exciting opportunities for youth development. Recent work has included:

In-service training to allow 1500 secondary school teachers to better equip their students with 21st century survival skills. These include competency in science, maths and English, but also span from IT and media aptitude, to learning and life skills
32,000 children and young people reached with improvements to secondary education
Entrepreneurship training for youth volunteer graduates
100+ inclusive neighbourhood spaces created by youth volunteers for out-of-school children. Over 200 children were supported to re-enrol in school through this work, with many more developing 21st century skills.
