Quality education is the cornerstone of sustainable development. At Women Impacting Nigeria (WIN), we recognize that girls’ education is not only a strategic development priority but also a transformative tool for improving the quality of life. By providing access to inclusive education, we equip women and girls with the knowledge and skills needed to tackle the world’s most pressing challenges.

Educated women are healthier, more active in the formal labor market, earn higher incomes, and contribute to better healthcare and education for future generations. However, barriers such as inadequately trained teachers, poor school conditions, and inequitable opportunities for girls hinder progress.

WIN’s Initiatives

WIN is dedicated to breaking these barriers through innovative programs designed to empower and educate females across society. Here’s how we’re making a difference:

Mobile School Initiative:

• We’ve launched the first-of-its-kind mobile school in Lagos, reaching over 500 primary school children. This initiative brings education directly to underserved communities, ensuring no child is left behind.

One Woman, One Child Mentorship Program:

Through these community-based programs, girls can rewrite their stories, empower their families, and give back to their communities.
