I-MAP (illegal migration
awareness program) and AVP (alternatives to violence project) are targeted at
youths at risk in the society.
Since its inception in August
last year in Lagos, Enugu and Abuja, we have organised out reaches to
orphanages, schools, NYSC camps, remand homes, indigenous communities and
anywhere we found youths at risk.
As volunteer peer educators,
we do not only teach youths their rights as migrant workers (whether they are
legal or illegal migrants) we teach them effective alternatives to violence
methods, life planning skills and we encourage them to arm themselves with the
information found in the Nigeria Immigration act. We also organise workshops
where we train youths on skills acquisition and we provide linkages between
these youths and vocational homes.
Keep a date with us on the
26th of January at the Aquatic water parks at ikeja for the I-MAP talent hunt
and youth concert.
The talent hunt
competition is open to all including students of public and private schools. Areas open to
contestants are music, drama, poetry debates, comedy etc. There are lots of cash prizes to be won.
Youth peer educators will also be
on ground to answer your questions including how to become a peer educator too.
There will be guest
appearance by M.I, Joke Slyva, Dramin of the Stupidbots crew, Villy of the XVol,
l band and so many more artiste, comedians and seasoned motivational speakers.
ADMISSION IS TOTALLY FREE!
I-MAP is a PRAWA initiative
in partnership with AVP and M-POWER and it is supported by the BRITISH HIGH
COMMISSION, NYSC and THE NIGERIA IMMIGRATION SERVICE.
