IFESH Health and Conflict Management Program in Nigeria.

Nigeria

Our operations in Nigeria began in 1988 when we assigned International Fellows to the University of Ibadan and to the Opportunities Industrialization Centers International. Soon after, we began working with government and communities to identify and implement programs that focused on community development, vocational and entrepreneurial development, training of youth with special emphasis placed on literacy, health, HIV/AIDS, conflict management and mitigation, education and agriculture. Currently our Health Program and Conflict Mitigation Program are funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and United States Agency for International Development respectively.
