A Few Words
About Us
It is a global stance that the youths and children are highly vulnerable in every society. Most contemporary social vices such as cultism, hooliganism, alcoholism, violence, smoking, etc are usually found among young people. Most young people do not even understand how to go about choice of career neither how to meet other social needs of life. Child labour is rampant in most African states, where children are exposed to labor as against the recommendations and positions of International Labour Organizations (ILO) and United Nations International Children Education Fund (UNICEF). The youths and children are therefore faced with various challenges globally with most African countries inclusive. It is against this backdrop that Support Initiative for Youths and Children Affairs International (SIYCAI) is put in place to address most of the challenges facing young people, including children.
SIYCAI is a non-governmental organization which is borne out of burden to encourage, motivate, educate, train, sponsor and empower young people with the purpose of developing in them moral values and functional skills that will make them relevant in their work places, community activities, national programmes and global participation in realization of a healthy environment and peaceful world.
