Government is not an obstacle. Government is the multiplier.

CARE AFRICA does not build hubs without government. Land. Regulatory access. NYSC deployment. Co-funding. Community legitimacy. All require government.

Every CARE AFRICA hub is a public-private partnership β€” government authority, private execution, community ownership, transparent accountability.
