CHANGE
– IT BEGINS WITH YOU AND ME
The Revolution of Change starts with the Individual. Our Society is a Product of our Interactions with it.
Our mission is to develop an inspired, educated and socially responsible generation of people who will be the foundation of an equitable and progressive world.
Our Inspiration.
They were inspired by a simple thought – what they could contribute from who they were and where they were. That inspiration led to the creation of Generation for Societal Change as a registered Non-Governmental Organization in 2010.

Our Story.
The idea for Generation for Societal Change was mooted in 2001 during a discussion about the social, political and economic issues in Nigeria. A group of young people decided to challenge themselves on contributing to the “solutions”
rather than spend a lifetime discussing the “problems” challenges plaguing Nigeria. This group of young people would later decide to challenge themselves to become part of the lasting solutions to these challenges, rather than spend a lifetime merely discussing these challenges or even contributing to them.
