No Project Too Big Or Too Small
Housing has a major impact on the health & wellbeing, education, life chances and outcomes of Africans. It is also a major reflection of social/economic inequality, poor infrastructure development, poor health outcomes and social/economic injustice. It is also crucial to the attainment of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) in Africa Our primary focus is to support the emergence and thriving of a national/regional housing system which drives economic development, sustainability, social equalities, better infrastructure and improved healthcare opportunities across Africa.
Given significant budgets are committed to housing and infrastructure developments annually by African governments and, international organisations along with their governments, we provide professional services through feasibility studies to scope out potential projects and provide ‘independent eyes’ on the ground for funders to monitor projects and obtain feedback directly from those affected.

School Building Project
The 21st Century School Project aims to provide students, teachers and local communities with a ‘fit for purpose’ school system which, meets the standards of a 21st century educational and learning environment. Crucially, the 21st century School will focus on the needs of the students and will provide students and teachers as well as the communities with:
- Integrated and Interdisciplinary skills essential for the 21st century work place
- Access to global learning tools thereby bringing the students and their teachers in touch with international learning standards
- Tools to adapt and lead in the development of long term personal and educational skills
- Practical and research learning environment
- Access to relevant teaching and learning technologies towards excellent educational attainment
Strategic Development Plan for the Internally Displaced Persons (STRAD-PIP)
According to the United Nations Human Rights’ (OHCHR) Guiding Principles on internal displacement, internally displaced persons (also known as “IDPs”) are “persons or groups of persons who have been forced or obliged to flee or to leave their homes or places of habitual residence, in particular as a result of or in order to avoid the effects of armed conflict, situations of generalized violence, violations of human rights or natural or human-made disasters, and who have not crossed an internationally recognized border.”
Internally Displaced Persons, particularly in situations of armed conflict are generally:
- Subject to heightened vulnerability in a number of areas
- Suffering significantly higher rates of mortality than the general population
- At high risk of physical attack, sexual assault and abduction
- Deprived of adequate shelter, food and health services
Notably, the overwhelming majority of internally displaced persons are women and children who are especially at risk of abuse of their basic rights. More often than refugees, the internally displaced tend to remain close to or become trapped in zones of conflict, caught in the cross-fire and at risk of being used as pawns, targets or human shields.
The needs of displaced persons are not different from the needs others. Essentially, displaced persons need good quality housing and related infrastructure in a stable, safe and secure environment. The aim of Strategic Development Plan (STRAD-PIP) is to develop unique approach to the housing and infrastructure needs of displaced persons towards providing them liveable environment. Essentially, the STRAD-PIP will:
- Deliver a good housing/accommodation system which improves the living standards of displaced persons while also ensuring security of lives and properties.
- Develop an innovative Educational System to ensure children and students who are displaced are able to continue their education in a safe environment.
- Develop a co-production approach in developing and delivering the STRAD-PIP
- Work with displaced persons, NGOs and the governments to develop the economic capabilities of displaced persons towards creating and generating sustainable employments
- Develop robust infrastructure and facilities that meet the need of displaced persons and which support economic development.
- When required to return back home or place of residence, support the rebuilding of the destroyed and dilapidated housing and infrastructure to ensure displaced persons are able to continue to live in good quality housing and in a safe and secure environment.
Strategic Urban Regeneration Plan (SURPLA)
Urban areas are complex and dynamic systems. They reflect the many processes that drive physical, social, environmental and economic transition and they themselves are prime generators of many such changes. However, across Africa, unplanned urbanisation is placing significant burden on urban resources with many people in urban centres living in poverty or slum. Notably, many people living in urban centres lack access to basic services and livelihood including good quality housing, good water and sanitation system, security of tenure, and adequate living/play area. Similarly, policy and political responses to urbanisation have been inadequate and short term thereby, leading to poor outcomes for all.
Our aim is to work with all stakeholders and partners in regenerating urban areas, particularly, slums to ensure urban dwellers have access to the services which enhance their livelihood.
Regeneration covers a broad range of public policy. Regeneration is a holistic process of reversing economic, social and physical decay in areas where it has reached a stage when market forces alone will not be sufficient. This involves using public money to leverage private investment into an area. The aim of the SURPLAS is to deliver regeneration activities in areas which target the following areas:
- Worklessness, skills and training development
- Enterprise and business development
- Industrialisation and commerce
- Infrastructure
- Housing growth and improvement
- Community development
- Environmental improvement
- Neighbourhood renewal
The main strategic objectives of SURPLAS are:
- To stimulate economic activity and employment by leveraging external funding, private sector investment and Government involvement/investment in the area
- To strengthen the capability of local organisations to undertake long-term economic enterprise development thereby leading to further economic development
- To provide more jobs for local people by encouraging and supporting the development local enterprise
- To facilitate enterprise by local people through enterprise training and financial and managerial assistance
- To support projects designed to improve the environment, and the provision of community services and to reduce the level of crime where these can be linked to the re integration of local people into local economic activity
- To develop innovative approaches to problems which are capable of application in other inner city areas
- To work with the Governments in developing robust Urban Development Strategies and Policies which, can serve as a development template for urban regeneration and renewal. This will also improve the co ordination between Government, and residents
