Lesson 2

Africans between the ages of 15 and 35, our target demography at Onelife Initiative in Nigeria, constitute 5.5% of the world’s population. That’s about 450 million youths. Massive number there… Transforming their lives and communities has to be a global priority else the result of ignoring this is better imagined. Joining the Afe Babalola Centre for Transnational Education at the King’s College London on the Transformative Education for Young Africans and for Africa presented us an opportunity to share our ideas at the plenary on our insights into employment needs for young people in Nigeria.Having one of our volunteers join the meeting physically was also a win for us. It was our volunteer’s first time on a train ride and a first time on the campus of the University of Lagos. More impressive was the quality of her participation at the event. #TravelisEducation#Youths #Education #Employability #Nigeria #Volunteering … See MoreSee Less

After an intensive 5-day residential training on Increasing Sexual and Reproductive Autonomy among women and girls in Oyo State, our Peer Educators couldn’t wait to get to work! They immediately began sharing their new knowledge with peers in their communities.They held engaging discussions on Gender Power Dynamics, Gender Inequality, and its impact on Sexual and Reproductive Health. They also shared life skills such as Body Image, Self-Esteem, Decision Making, Goal Setting, and Communication, Negotiation, and Refusal Skills to help their peers make informed decisions about their health.One of the most exciting parts? Many of the girls were thrilled to learn how to track their menstrual cycles and explore various contraceptive methods. They’re now equipped to identify and report Sexual and Gender-Based Violence (SGBV) to the right authorities.Here’s the best part—the impact is spreading fast! The peers are already mobilizing their friends for the next cohort session because they believe this life-changing information shouldn’t be kept to themselves.#SRHR #YoungPeople #ReproductiveRights #SexualHealth #WomenandGirls #SexualityEducation #OyoState #Ibadan #LifeSkills #Abstinence #Contraception #Consent #MenstrualHealthandHygiene #Ipas … See MoreSee Less

There are so many opportunities in the agricultural sector, that there is room for everyone to do something. We have seed producers, input dealers, consultants, cash crop farmers, vegetable farmers, food crop farmers, livestock farmers, agronomists, etc. One opportunity that is very easy to venture into, and has not really been utilised is the seedlings production.Seedling production is the cultivation of plant seeds in a special place known as a nursery. This is done so that for the first few weeks, the plants are grown and nurtured in a conducive environment through controlled medium until they reach a specified and suitable size for transplanting.Though not all vegetables require nursery, some major plants, such as tomatoes, pepper, cabbage, onions, lettuce, etc really require nursery.In respect to this, we have been training vegetable farmers on the #HortiNigeria on the various methods of innovatively raising healthy seedling in nurseries. Which one will you be trying?#HortiNigeria #InnovationInFarming #sustainableagriculture#agribusiness #enterprisedevelopment #onelifeinitiative#vegetables #horticulture #oyostate #YouthsInAgriculture #ibadan#nigeria #oyostate … See MoreSee Less

Women and girls in #nwaniba and #IKPA in Akwa Ibom benefited from our intense community sensitisation on SRHR. Obviously, the reproductive culture and lifestyle of women and girls differ even within the communities . Of note for us was the evidence that little or no information about sexual and reproductive health and rights exists in the community.With support from out partner, Ipas Nigeria Health Foundation, we were able to address this gap. We took this a step further to also link them up to services and also point them to government resourced services at the Primary Health Care Centre and the Committee on GBV in the state in addition to community service providers who were trained.We are happy seeing women and girls we have linked to services providing glowing response.#monday #uyo #AkwaIbom #SRHR #youngpeople #ReproductiveRights #SexualHealth #womenandgirls #sexualityeducation #lifeskills #Abstinence #contraception #consent #MenstrualHealthAndHygiene … See MoreSee Less
