Through the program, about 20 youth will be appointed as activists, and come up with innovative ways to engage other young people to influence and drive policies that augur well for their socio-economic reality. Persons selected to be activists under the program will receive financial support (including mini-grants) and technical assistance to implement pilot projects that contribute to social change. They will execute the project over twelve months. The SUSO Program is organized by the Nigeria Youth SDGs Network, Center for Youth Advocacy and Development, and Afrika Youth Movement.
