Naijaspora is a coalition of Nigerians in the diaspora. It is a public service project that seeks to elevate the profiles of Nigerians as well as provide support to Nigerian citizens and communities, home and abroad.
The Naijaspora project is the brainchild of Babatunde Oladele, a graduate of the Clinton School of Public Service. During his studies at the Clinton School, Babatunde did a stint at the UNESCO Headquarters in Paris, France, where he was part of some UNESCO projects specifically targeted at improving global peace. He also participated in several developmental projects aimed at improving welfare, fostering inclusive economic growth across the United States, and providing equitable access to the national commonwealth for the American people. These exposures afforded him firsthand insight into how developed nations address development issues as well as how they seek to solve their problems. It also inspired him to seek to replicate the process in addressing some of the challenges in his native country.
There is so much to do to support our people and communities both at home and abroad. The Naijaspora Team is committed to being the unrelenting voice that advocates for the welfare and the megaphone that trumpets the achievements of Nigerians everywhere.
It does not just stop there. We are also poised to be the hand that provides the needed support to Nigerians at home and in the diaspora through capacity development, scholarships, medical, infrastructures and other forms of aid as may be required from time to time.
We cannot do this alone. With your donations to this cause, together we can make a difference in our communities and in the lives of our people and change their story for the better.
