    The Almajiri Child Rights Initiative is an advocacy and educational support platform that amplifies the call for social inclusion of vulnerable children in Northern Nigeria. These children ("almajirai") are at the center of a poorly implemented Islamic scholarship program in Nigeria, that takes them to other states and nations for Islamic studies.
