EDUCATING WOMEN AND GIRLS

The conquest of poverty has become the overarching goal of Azama Progressive Foundations, and the theme before the foundation today goes to the heart of the matter -- for full employment and work, empowering women and eradicating poverty are all mutually reinforcing goals.

Education is an inalienable human right, guaranteed under the Convention on the Rights of the Child, among other instruments. Quality basic education for all is vital to society because it produces people who can contribute to the economic and social development that is required to eradicate poverty.

The focus of Azama Progressive Foundations efforts is on achieving quality basic education, especially for girls and women, as a central requirement for ensuring their empowerment and advancement.

The education of girls and women impacts the rest of the societies in which these girls and women live. A woman’s degree of education is linked to the age at which she marries and has children, to her health and diseases, to her economic opportunities, to her social standing, and to her general future wellbeing. Educating girls and women can reduce poverty in Otuo community, as well as in the United States.

Azama Progressive Foundation will provide, promote and encourage the acquisition of skills in Sewing industry and commerce with a view to generating a pool of indigenous trained womanpower sufficient to meet the needs of the Otuo community of the Nigerian economy. Sectors of the economy.

ERADICATE MATERNAL, CHILD HEALTH PROBLEMS

According to USAID (2018), maternal and child health is one of Nigeria's most critical development challenges. Health indicators in Nigeria are some of the worst in Africa. The country has one of the fastest growing populations globally. With 5.5 live births per woman and a population growth rate of 3.2 percent annually, it is estimated to reach 440 million people by 2050. With its rapidly growing population and development challenges, the country drags down the socioeconomic indicators for the entire African continent (USAID, 2018. The world's premier international development agency and a catalytic actor driving development results.)

As a result, Azama Progressive Foundation placing primary healthcare problems in order to eradicate problems associated with maternal and child health, which have over the years taken a great toll on the community. Primary healthcare formed the bedrock of health activities for the community, Azama Progressive Foundation will involve medical practitioner in the community in the campaign for immunization, HIV/AIDS, Tuberculosis, Malaria Typhoid fever, Child Nutrition and other related activities in enlightening the local population.

We will help create an environment for agricultural growth and business development by building the skills and ability of policy analysts to advocate for improved trade and transportation infrastructure. We will also promote improve dissemination of agricultural technologies by the community.

Our focus will be on rice, maize, cowpea and cashew production linking farmers to specialized markets, which increases overall competitiveness, incomes, and employment in the agricultural sector. These activities reduce poverty by increasing incomes, improving nutrition, and building household resilience to external shocks.
