 II. RATIONALE

ECACOVID will be embarking on Medical Outreach / Street Education activities in all Geo
political Zones of Nigeria a s f u l f i l l m e n t o f t h e m a n d a t e o f t h e o r g a n i z a t i o n .
Our mandates include liaising with local, national and international Ngo’s for the purpose of
advancing the course of providing health care for people. The supports of individuals and
corporate donors are therefore very crucial in order to effectively deliver the much needed
Medical Outreach / Street Education program and other needed services to all the
geopolitical zones in Nigeria. These are necessary to the future preparedness for pandemic as
our great country is recovering from the Covid 19 Pandemic. We will educate the societies more on
how to protect themselves as its imperative that we cannot go back to the way we did things before
the pandemic. We will therefore emphasize on the basic public health measures for the prevention
of Covid 19. We also have to be vigilant by checking the vital signs of Vulnerable ones who are at
disadvantage of assessing health centers and referring them to the hospitals if necessary

Through the ENACOVID Education and Medical outreach we will increase the course of
providing health care for people, educate the people on preventive measures of
malarial and extremely bad vital signs. We will also give basic education on water
related disease and preventions.

III. DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT, AND EXPECTED OUTCOMES,

The Outreach and Education provides counseling and non-formal education to

Nigerians in all the geopolitical zones in Nigeria. Through twenty-one (21) trained
young professionals and social workers working as educators and counselors,
Nigerians will

generated from other civil society groups and corporations. The sustainability of the
program is anchored on the following:
 Development and enhancement of knowledge, attitudes and capabilities, and
the empowerment of street educators, the partner NGOs, the LGUs, and
other civil society groups
 Continued partnership with the different civil society groups, other NGOs,
some corporations, and local and national government agencies as well as
active involvement and participation in different networks that promote the
rights of Nigerians, especially the vulnerable ones and improve existing
programs and services for street and urban poor Nigerians.
