AWB-Nigeria is engaged in a variety of activities to use astronomy and STEM to inspire learning and to motivate kids who live under difficult conditions. AWB takes Astronomy and STEM to the underprivileged kids in different rural communities, these are kids who wouldn’t have had access to Astronomy and STEM by virtue of their background and socio-economic background of the parents.

Example is the project being done with kids from the Internally Displaced People’s (IDP) camps across Nigeria. Kids who have been affected by the insurgency ravaging parts of the North Eastern Nigeria. Also, part of AWB Nigeria’s focus has been on the female child. Trying to bridge the gender gap that currently exists in STEM education among the young people in Nigeria. By getting the female children exposed to STEM and Astronomy in order to empower them for a future of STEM careers. More on AWB activities can be found here.
