Design the Open Data Policy for Nigeria's Earth Observation Assets
Nigeria has invested billions in space infrastructure. The data this infrastructure produces is almost entirely inaccessible to Nigerian researchers, businesses, and government agencies. Design the open data framework.
Use Drones to Deliver Medical Supplies to Nigeria's Hard-to-Reach Communities
Zipline proved drones can save lives in Rwanda. Nigeria has harder terrain, weaker regulation, and greater scale. Design the drone delivery model that works in a specific Nigerian context.
Make Nigerian Sports Facilities Accessible to Ordinary Citizens
Nigeria has thousands of government sports facilities that are underused by the public and over-used by a small elite. Design the access and booking system that changes this.
Build the Digital Infrastructure for Grassroots Football Development in Nigeria
Nigeria's football talent starts on dusty pitches in Aba and Kano. The development pathway from those pitches to the Super Eagles is broken. Design the digital infrastructure that repairs it.
Build the Child Trafficking Prevention System for Nigeria's Most Vulnerable Routes
Nigeria is a source, transit, and destination country for child trafficking. Traffickers operate openly on known routes. Design the protection system that intercepts them.
Reduce Fire Deaths in Nigeria's Dense Urban Settlements
Fires kill hundreds and destroy thousands of businesses in Nigerian markets and neighbourhoods every year. Early detection and response time are the critical factors. Design the community fire safety system that saves lives.
Build the Road Safety Data Infrastructure Nigeria Needs to Save 40,000 Lives a Year
Nigeria loses over 40,000 people to road crashes annually. The data system that could track crash causes and locations to target interventions barely exists. Design it.
Protect Nigerian MSMEs from Cybercrime
Cybercrime costs Nigerian businesses an estimated ₦2 trillion annually. MSMEs are the most vulnerable and have the least protection. Design the affordable cybersecurity solution built for them.
Build the Impact Measurement Standard Nigerian Social Enterprises Actually Use
Most Nigerian social enterprises report impact in anecdotes and unverifiable numbers. Donors are sceptical. Enterprises are overwhelmed. Design the lightweight measurement standard that fixes both problems.
Help a Nigerian State Build a Digital Land Registry
Nigeria's land registries are paper-based, easily manipulated, and decades behind comparable African countries. Design the digital registry migration that a state government could actually implement.
Stop Property Fraud in Nigeria's Real Estate Market
Nigerian property fraud — selling the same plot twice, fake title documents, impersonating landowners — costs buyers billions annually. Design the verification system that eliminates it.
Design the Co-Living Model That Makes Affordable Housing Work for Urban Nigerian Youth
A decent one-bedroom apartment in Lagos costs ₦1.5 million annually. A recent graduate earns ₦100,000 per month. The maths does not work. Design the co-living model that does.
