CoBAC is idealised to provide a community education and capacity building platform that will allow all citizen have access to, read and comprehend national, state and LGA budgets towards a better society. The core concern is to first of all educate the citizens about budget principles. Its importance in community building, the relevance of sticking to it by the political leaders, the use of budgetary control reports in measuring governments’ performance, and mastering the art of lobbying for a performance informed budgeting system in Nigeria.
The Club is in the process of being established at various community levels to facilitate stronger base and continuity.
BUILDING ALMAJIRIS AND REFORMING THEIR ATTITUDE - BARA
Change in BARA is targeting the very vulnerable almajiris whose future has been shattered and robbed by the uninformed community that breeds them since time inmemorable especially in the Northern parts of Nigeria.
Change in BARA plans to host a pilot programme that will see the long social menace of almajiris waning away systematically by providing a community-owned institutional solution. Here we are envisaging starting a community food security programme, community education programme, and community-based empowerment programme for the almajiris. After successful roll out of the pilot programme in the selected LGAs in Kano State, the full blown project will then be implemented across affected states.
