9.PACT-OAU

The Alliance for Community Transformation is a non-governmental, not-for-profit organization dedicated to fostering an ethos of active public involvement in community self-development, poverty alleviation and peace-building in African countries.

ACT initiates and facilitates strategic partnering initiatives among key social agents such as academic institutions and their local host communities, corporate, public and religious bodies for community-based solutions to pressing needs.
ACT projects facilitate the transformation of living conditions in African countries through networks of community development partnerships that empower members of the community and provide a basis for the entrenchment of democratic practices.

The PACT-OAU initiative is directed at the Ile-Ife, Modakeke and other local communities that surround and host the Obafemi Awolowo University. It was established by ACT, with the collaborative support of the university administration. The success of this initiative owes much to the sustained interest, accessibility and facilitative support of the University's Vice-Chancellor, Professor Roger Makanjuola and the Chairman, University Linkages office, Professor Adediran.
The university has provided office space for the program within the university in recognition of the need for a neutral meeting ground for all members of the surrounding communities which have only recently emerged from a particularly devastating communal warfare.

10.SWA OAU

The Student World Assembly is a non-governmental, nonpartisan organization created to represent students globally. It provides a deliberative assembly where students around the world can exchange views, vote on global issues through online discussion forums and in annual international conventions, and translate these views into meaningful actions.

True representative democracy offers a powerful instrument for addressing the vital social and political conditions that threaten our global future. The informed wishes of the people, conveyed through the collective voice of a democratic assembly, need to be heard in the decision- making processes. By giving students from the most remote to the more accessible institutions an equal voice, we are enabling all students to educate, participate and take action, and to begin thinking of themselves as global citizens.

SWA endeavors to educate the world through its members. Every month, a chapter of the Student World Assembly highlights a Pressing Global Issue. Once approved by the Issues & Campaigns Committee, the general membership is provided with news reports, articles, and scholarly resources through the website. After reading about the issue, members are urged to engage in a dialogue with others on the online discussion forum. The purpose of the discussion forums is to educate and be educated, to hear and be heard, about the global issues that demand our immediate attention.

We lauunched our chapter in October 23rd , 2004 with me as the pioneer president with an intention to make a point with history.
