Word Connect Nigeria
Improving health, education, and economic opportunity in Nigeria by investing in solutions designed and led by local communities.
World Connect
Nigeria Overview
Since 2017, World Connect Nigeria has supported 145 community-led projects to support locally identified priorities. With a 96% project success rate, these communities have improved health, education, and economic opportunity for over 192,000 Nigerians.
Our co-investment model means that, alongside World Connect Nigeria's grant funding, the communities we partner with contribute cash, labor, and supplies to each project. This approach fosters local ownership and strengthens long-term impact beyond the project funding. Local leaders and their communities led and monitor their projects, helping to develop news skills and uniting people around the continued wellbeing of their community.
