Sustainable Collective Advocacy  for Africa Development Initiative This will be achieved by working with everyone for everyone.

SCAAD initiative was established with a mission to empower youth and marginalized communities to access opportunities to improve their quality of life and contribute to sustainable development.

Secondary school students in Borno State just built an AI teaching robot: not engineers, not university graduates but secondary school students.

After six months of training in coding, robotics and artificial intelligence, these young Nigerians built Max Zulum, a humanoid robot designed to teach mathematics and science in communities where teacher shortages and insecurity have long disrupted learning.

This is what happens when young people are given access, training and the opportunity to create.

Nigeria is not short of brilliance, it is short of opportunity.

At SCAAD Initiative, we believe every young Nigerian deserves the chance to be this generation's next innovator.

Nigeria feeds millions, yet Nigerian farmers remain some of the most vulnerable people in the country.

Unpredictable rainfall, prolonged droughts, flooding that destroys harvests overnight: these are not just weather problems, they are climate problems and they are getting worse.

Climate change is hitting Nigerian farmers hard, the same people who wake up every day to put food on our tables.

Smart agriculture, using weather data, drought resistant crops, and smarter irrigation is not a luxury, it is survival.

At SCAAD Initiative, we advocate for farming communities that are not just surviving climate change but are equipped to adapt to it.

Is climate change affecting food production in your community?

Our Executive Director, Frances Uchenna Okeke, was at GS-26, the Gender and Inclusion Summit 2026 in Abuja and the conversations did not disappoint.

One message rang loud and clear: inclusion requires everyone. Government, civil society, communities and businesses all have a role to play, no single institution can do it alone.

At SCAAD Initiative, that is not just a conference theme, it is how we work every day.

What does inclusion mean to you?

A 9 year old Nigerian girl is teaching thousands of people mathematics on TikTok.

With just a whiteboard, a marker and a smartphone, Charlotte Muritala is breaking down algebra and fractions for over 80,000 followers and making it fun.

This is what happens when a child is given the freedom to learn and the confidence to share what they know.

Imagine what becomes possible when every Nigerian child has this same opportunity.

At SCAAD Initiative, we advocate for an education that unlocks potential, not one that limits it.

What did you wish you had been taught differently in school?

The earth does not need grand gestures, just consistent ones.

Turning off a tap, choosing to reuse, reduce and recycle, planting something, disposing waste properly or choosing to walk instead of taking a ride for short distances.

These are not small things, they are the things that add up.

We have spent so long waiting for governments and big corporations to fix the environmental crisis that we have underestimated the power sitting in our own daily choices.

Every act of care for the environment is an act of justice for the communities already losing farmlands, clean water and stable weather to a crisis they did not create.

At SCAAD Initiative, we believe environmental responsibility starts at the individual level and ripples outward into communities, policies and change.

What is one simple habit you are committed to for the sake of our planet?

COVID 19 lock down brought with it the need to transition to online learning which was supposed to be the great equalizer. The promise was simple: anyone, anywhere, can access quality education.

But is that really the case for all Nigerians?

Because access to online learning still requires a smartphone, stable internet, and electricity: things millions of Nigerians do not have reliable access to.

So who is actually benefiting from the rise of online learning and who is being left further behind?

At SCAAD Initiative, we believe that quality education should reach every child.

Is online learning closing the education gap in Nigeria or widening it?

Something is quietly dying in our classrooms and it is not the curriculum.

It is curiosity.

In an age where information is more accessible than ever, our students are engaging less, questioning less, exploring less but just passively consuming what they are taught.

Is it the phones and endless scroll or AI making it too easy or is it something deeper, the growing belief that education no longer guarantees the future it once promised?

At SCAAD Initiative, we believe education must do more than fill young minds with content, it must ignite the hunger to keep learning long after the classroom.

What do you think is killing curiosity in Nigerian students today?
