Education & Resource Centre for Children is an initiative created by Unique Foundation the Gambia. Solomon Ifeanyi Nathaniel is the leader of Unique Foundation (UF) The Gambia, a charitable organization that works with vulnerable children, youths, women and rural communities in the Gambia. The main focus of UF is the right to health, education, and capacity building of the poor and vulnerable in the society; addressing issues such as poverty, illiteracy, vulnerability and marginalization. The Foundation also engages in Women’s legal rights, such as the right to be educated and employed, family planning, fighting against female genital mutilation (FGM). UF believes that education is one of the essential tools to facilitating societal change and every individual has some level of strength within, waiting to be uncovered.
The main goals of this project “Education & Resource Centre for Children” are:
•to increase access to textbooks, tutors and mentors for the less privileged children within Dippakunda slum. This will help improve the academic achievement of the children and reduce expenditure burden on poor families.
•to reduce number of children in age group 5 to 12 abandoning school and increase the number of children who enroll in school and attend regularly.
•To establish a learning center where children who under-attend or do not attend school feel able to tell their story, share information, express their feelings and make informed choices regarding their future and are given an equal opportunity to achieve their full potential as their peers in wealthy families and in other parts of the world. This will help them become responsible and productive citizens.
•to create a child-friendly environment where children who under-attend or do not attend school will be guided towards formal education and/or vocational studies that suit them best, and that will enable them to succeed, build confidence and courage towards future challenges.
Since inception of UF in 2014, the organization has been dedicated to advocating for the right to and importance of education for children living in poverty in The Gambia. We do this through awareness seminars in schools and communities, group and individual counseling, and dissemination of media publications. We have successfully reached more than 5 communities and more than 10 schools in The Gambia. These activities have helped to prevent a sizeable number of students at risk of dropping out of secondary school to remain in school and not drop out before the completion of 12th grade.
UF has also successfully collaborated with other non-governmental organizations in The Gambia to provide life skills such as information and communication technology (ICT) training for rural youth in villages around Tanji. Success stories from this training are evident as some participants have become self-employed by providing graphic design services while others have gone on to take further studies in ICT-related programs.

Heavy use areas are plots of land that require protection to provide a stable, noneroding surface for areas frequently used by animals, people, or vehicles. Resource Conservationists provide our nation’s farmers, ranchers and forestland owners with the knowledge and tools they need to conserve, maintain and restore the natural resources on their lands and improve the health of their operations for the future.
NRCS offers this assistance at no cost to producers with the goal to give personalized advice and information. This information is based on the latest science and research, to help make informed decisions with suggested conservation practices that can help them reach their production and conservation goals.

Water has become a highly precious resource. There are some places where a barrel of water costs more than a barrel of oil.
Lloyd Axworthy, Foreign Minister of Canada (1999 - News Conference
This bottle of water is filled with fresh water daily and chained to a fence, so no one will steal it. Next to it are two old pots to keep filled so the dogs in the park can have a drink. It is quite an image, this big jar in chains, and, I guess after listening to a series about water conservation on CBC, it caught my attention in a different way from before.
