At Bridge Connect Africa Initiative (BCAI), we believe that every community has the potential to drive the changes they desire if empowered to do so. Therefore, we are committed to empowering communities to live their best lives.
BCAI is a non-governmental organization that was founded and incorporated as a trust in August 2018. Our mission is to co-create innovative solutions with communities, women, and young people to build a more equitable, just, and sustainable future. By working together with communities, we can create real change and make a difference in the lives of those who need it most.
We have identified several key areas crucial to achieving our mission: Education, Health, Climate Change, Child Protection, Media, and Digital Advocacy. Through our work in these areas, we aim to positively impact the lives of women and young people across Africa.
At BCAI, we are dedicated to influencing, advocating, and amplifying policies and issues that advance women’s and young people’s rights to quality, accessible, and equitable education. We also strive to influence policies that guarantee universal access to health services and eliminate inequities through advocacy, cross-sectoral collaboration, and participation.
Furthermore, we understand the significance of climate action, and we empower women and young people to promote sustainable practices in their communities through education and support. We prioritize inclusive digital solutions that address various issues while ensuring that the community’s voices are heard during our collaborative efforts.
