Social impact Statement Since 2011, MAYEIN has been implementing a compendium of solid literacy, e-Literacy and Positive Youth Development (PYD) programs reaching over 5000 educationally disadvantaged children and youth across poor communities and public school settings in Nigeria’s South-West region. In 2020, MAYEIN’s mobile library had over 800 users across three communities in Oyo State. Through a collaboration with Youth Hub Africa and the Malala Foundation, MAYEIN has engaged over 3000 adult gatekeepers (parents, community heads and religious leaders) across South-west Nigeria, in a series of girls’ education campaigns. These campaigns have resulted in over 700 formal pledges by adult gatekeepers to keep girls in school. |
