WiserEarth Nigeria
A dialogue, sharing and networking space for Nigerians and fans
As there are many people from Nigeria in WiserEarth and several foreigners who've been there, we started this group to see if having a space for dialogue, sharing and networking would be useful for the work we do onlife. We're here to share our stories, our knowledge and our passions. And by networking, we hope to be better at working together.
