Nigeria

Effecting change through training, technology and education has been the blueprint for Winrock International’s involvement in Nigeria since the early 1990s. Winrock has expanded efforts to increase the market penetration of commercial renewable energy technologies. Its programs have funded scholarships and mentoring programs for girls and young women. And Winrock has boosted the agricultural sector by linking agricultural producers to new market opportunities, and providing farmers and agribusinesses with technical assistance in food processing, marketing and distribution, a process that continues today with the West Africa Farmer-to-Farmer program.
