Foosteer initiative for
community health and social development operates in the rural poor and hard to
reach areas of kogi state, North Central Nigeria where people have hardly any
access to services due to the remote location and unpredictable condition of
the area. The program is one of the major programs in the areas in addressing
the need for sustainable development of the kogi population. It function in the
areas of Health, Education, Nutrition,
Agriculture, Environment, Human rights and Household Economic strengthening,
all captioned Foosteer Friendly Programs (FFP). The Education program called;
Foosteer Friendly Education program (FFEP) promotes a discovery-based,
interactive education, which seeks to create a significant change in these
areas through developing primary education and life skills, as well as civic
sense, awareness amongst the community for their right of education and social
education useful to the society and their family.
Foosteer’s approach to
education in rural poor and hard to reach areas is based on innovative and
effective approaches to increase access to education of underserved children as
well as develop an infrastructure for proper education services delivery.
Primary educational services
(formal and non-formal), satellite schools, child to child peer education and
vocational training for adolescents are some of the key components of Foosteer’s
interventions for spreading education in the rural poor and hard to reach areas.
