Current Target Regions/Areas


We are going to cover all the countries of Africa, on a case by case bases. We are starting off in regions with the greatest needs as identified by our field representatives and confirmed by our head office team.

Our immediate current regions for support are:
 

 2008
Eastern Nigeria

Support economic development activities that will generate 3 million new jobs in 10 years

Our immediate focus is to reduce the number of people living below the poverty line by generating 3 million new job in our current target area – Eastern Nigeria. This number of jobs will support 3 million families, which translates into bringing  10 million people out of poverty. In Eastern Nigeria alone, ICA will be working, over the next 10 years, to reduce the number of people living below the poverty line (UN benchmark of less than $1/day), from 22 million to 12 million (or 7m to 4million families). We will do this by creating an environment that allows the required new jobs to be created.  

For more information, on the Eastern Nigeria project, please contact our head-office: admin@icafrica.com


 

 2008
North-West Ghana

We are supporting micro-enterprises in the water-drilling micro-businesses. There is a huge unemployment in this region and several young entrepreneurs desperate for assistance to grow their ventures. In the mist of this are several hundred thousands of people with no portable water. So the ventures in this region will help meet many of our poverty reduction targets.

Our field Representative, Mr. Allan Atsu is heading this project. For more information, Allan can be reached at: Allan_Atsu@icafrica.com
