Strategy for Tackling Poverty in Nigeria:
What America Can Learn From This?
This book delivers a compelling, evidence-driven exploration of how poverty can be addressed through youth-centered policy, community perception, and strategic social marketing. Drawing from in-depth empirical research within Nigeria’s National Youth Service Corps, the author uncovers why many poverty-alleviation programs fail — and, more importantly, what actually works. By examining the lived experiences of young people, institutions, and communities, the book presents practical frameworks that move beyond theory to real-world policy impact.
Far from being a regional study, this work offers powerful global insights. It challenges policymakers, development professionals, academics, and social innovators in the United States and other developed economies to rethink how poverty is framed, communicated, and solved. With clear policy implications, actionable strategies, and lessons that cross borders, Strategy for Tackling Poverty in Nigeria is an essential resource for anyone serious about designing inclusive, sustainable, and effective poverty-reduction initiatives.

This upcoming book promises thoughtful insight, practical perspective, and a bold call to rethink the relationship between economic hardship and long-term development. With clarity and conviction, Dr. Eguruze invites readers to examine poverty not just as a social issue, but as a structural and sustainability challenge that demands innovation, responsibility, and action.
If you are passionate about development, policy, community transformation, or sustainable progress, this is a book you will not want to miss.
