Programs

Lift Africa Foundation delivers impact through flagship programs that connect law, gender justice, civic power, and institutional accountability.
Each program responds to community realities while driving systemic, sustainable change across Nigeria.

Our programs are grouped under our three core pillars:

Gender Justice​

Advancing the rights and agency of women and girls through legal protection, education and economic empowerment

Legal Empowerment​

Using law and civic power as tools to challenge injustice, strengthen institutions and expand access to justice for marginalize groups

Accountability Reform

Promoting transparent governance, citizen oversight, and institutional integrity through data driven advocacy and civic participation
