Slum2School Africa

Slum2School Africa is an social intervention driven by young volunteers with a mission to reduce the total number of out-of-school children in Nigeria and across Africa.Statistics has it that Nigeria has the highest number of out-of-school children in the world [UNESCO 2013] and also stands as the fourth country with the highest population of slum dwellers globally [UN Habitat 2012]. With these figures, it is apparent that a major percentage of out-of-School children are found in slums which makes this project extremely imperative in the quest to solving the issue of access to Education. Slum2School Africa strives on its innovative community involvement processes and strategic problem solving mechanism which involves about eight stages in combating the rise in the number of out-of-school cases. Moreover our focus is to mobilize efforts of Government, private sector, individuals and other development agencies towards building a collaborative and sustainable network to secure Educational opportunities for Children from disadvantaged families/communities and also build a network of socially responsible youths with a mindset for social development.
