Empowering Women to Build Stronger Communities
The Nigeria for Women Project (NFWP) is a flagship project of the Federal Ministry of Women Affairs. The Project has an objective of supporting improved livelihoods for women in targeted communities of Nigeria.
The first phase of the long-term engagement between the Federal Government of Nigeria and the World Bank is currently running over a five-year period. This project is informed by other projects such as the Rural Livelihoods Project in India which uses the model of women groups. NFWP introduces Women Affinity Groups (WAGs) in a very distinctive way starting with six states to prove that these platforms can be the base for layering livelihoods support.
Building Social Capital, Livelihoods Program, Innovations and Partnerships, Project Management, Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning.
What we stand for
At NFWP, we are committed to improving livelihoods for women in targeted states of Nigeria
Impact stories
I AM CHANGED TO CHANGE OTHERS
As a businesswoman dealing in rubber, I just dey buy and sell my rubber anyhow, but after the training, I keep proper record of everything I buy and sell and also include the cost of every overhead input such as shop rent, electricity and transport and know as I go put price for my market. This work has changed the way I handle money at home and in my business and I know every woman that joins this project will learn beta things”. In fact, I am very happy that I joined this project to help other women like me change. It’s easy to tell people about something that has worked for you and it’s a good thing to be able to help other people
