FACE Initiative Capacity buildingAdvocacyCollaborationEnlightenment
FACE Initiative is a non-profit, non partisan organization registered in Nigeria (CAC/IT/NO 62317).
FACE Initiative is empowering marginalized groups, especially women and youth and strengthening institutions through enlightenment, capacity building, advocacy and collaboration.
We build capacity and mentor marginalised groups especially women and youth in life skills, gender, civic rights and responsibilities, leadership, advocacy, alternative livelihood etc., to enable them take their rightful places to reduce inequality and poverty.
There is so much you can do to support vulnerable groups in the grassroots. From a few hours to a few weeks of volunteering, you could make the difference in someone’s life.
FACE Initiative from time to time takes on interns to train them on community development principles, advocacy and gender concepts
Your kind donations in kind or in cash will go a long way in assisting FACE Initiative to reach the vulnerable, the voiceless to put a smile on a face.

The Niger Delta region of Nigeria is characterized by under development. Although oil production in the Niger Delta contribute to over 80 percent of Nigeria’s revenue, this does not translate to development in the region. While the region lament deliberate neglect by the federal government, political leaders have also not deployed revenues accrued to the region in transparent manner. Oil exploration activities and poor leadership has led to high level of environmental degradation, poverty, lack of job opportunities, lack of basic social amenities, leading to agitations, cultism, proliferation of drugs and small arms.
Grassroots Civic Agency is almost non-existence as community members do not have relevant information and skills to engage their leaders. They are not able to contribute to decision making process or hold their leaders accountable for the mandate given to them.
