Leadership Initiatives is committed to improving the infrastructure of communities in sub-Saharan Africa. We are currently working to improve the infrastructure of two communities in northern Nigeria. The development projects in the Tirwun and Madina Quarters communities are a crucial part of improving the lives of citizens. In both communities, we constructed new classrooms and boreholes for water sanitation. These projects are especially important in sub-Saharan Africa, where infrastructure is often lacking and access to clean water is limited.
The construction of new classrooms and boreholes in northern Nigeria will have a direct impact on the quality of life for those living in the region. Not only will it provide access to better education, but it will also provide access to clean drinking water, which can help reduce cases of waterborne illnesses. The classrooms and boreholes will contribute to the overall long-term health goals of the communities to create a healthier population today and in the future.
It is our goal that these projects will have a long-term effect on both the Tirwun and Madina Quarters communities by reducing poverty and providing basic infrastructure that can help improve economic development, education, health, and other social services.
We have been working directly with leaders and community members from the Tirwun and Madina Quarters to select the most pressing issues to address with community development projects. Leaders from both communities believe that these development projects will give them the tools and resources they need to take control of their own development. This can lead to greater self-reliance and sustainability throughout future generations.
Sustainable solutions such as boreholes and education infrastructure will create stronger community relationships, increase trust and cooperation, and improve community well-being. We are committed to being long-term partners with both the Tirwun and Madina Quarters communities.

Dear Amazing Leadership Initiatives Donor,
To start off, thank you for your donations! These donations will continue to help enhance communities and create change in Bauchi State, Nigeria. Your support towards our student interns allows them to address major challenges in the community. Without the help of our donors, this would not have been possible. The student interns in our program have learned so much from our partners in Nigeria and have worked hard to create a better life for those in Bauchi. For our business program, each team has gone through the process of bonding with their business partner, learning about their lives, realizing the largest issues facing the business, and developing solutions to these issues. For our advocacy and public health programs, teams have gotten to know their project coordinator, learned all about their issue's history and present status in Nigeria, and developed a campaign to raise awareness for their issue in the community.
Our students in the business, public health, and advocacy programs worked hard throughout the year to improve the lives of those in Bauchi, Nigeria. We are so proud of the student interns for how well they finished the year out. To start off, those in our Business program ended the year by finishing their micro-grant solution proposal and having one final call with their business partner to go over their innovative solution with them. For our Advocacy and Public Health programs, student interns finished off by drafting and finalizing a full community workshop for facilitators to implement on the ground. These community workshops will be used to inform residents of Sabuwar Kasuwa and Gudum Sayawa communities in Bauchi about several advocacy and public health issues. To officially end the year off, these students had a Skype call with their project coordinator where they explained to them exactly how to give the community workshop and what information should be included in it.
While the International Internship Program takes a break this summer, the work that our interns do continues in Washington D.C. on the Georgetown University campus. Here, we are running our Youth Development Programs focusing on medicine and public health, business, law, national security, and neuroscience. Similar to IIP, each of the interns in this program is working to create positive change in the United States and abroad. In the Advanced Medical and Public Health Internship, interns are diagnosing real patients and developing public health campaigns. In the International Leadership and Business Internship, interns are launching a startup with entrepreneurs based in Nigeria and securing a grant for these new businesses. Our Advanced Law and Trial interns are assisting attorneys with court documents, research, and trial preparation. National Security and Intelligence interns are working directly with national security experts to train in the latest intelligence tactics and implement security strategies to save lives. Finally, in the Medical Neuroscience Internship, interns are participating in cutting-edge neuroscience and ethics research. On August 29, 2022, IIP will resume and our interns will return to a virtual format.

On October 18th, 2021, we started construction for our new office building in Nigeria. We are happy to announce that on January 7th, 2022, the Leadership Initiatives Community Center was completed. We also were able to install wire and electric fencing to ensure that everyone there is fully safe.
In addition to this, our student interns have made large amounts of progress in our International Internship Program. In our Law and Advocacy and Public Health programs, interns have written a comprehensive brief and created a community survey regarding the advocacy/health issue that they were assigned. They now are working on developing a community workshop that will be given in their community. In our International Business and Development Program, interns have created a logo and also a financial tracking plan for their business partners. They now are working on coming up with an advertising campaign.
