Many survivors of sexual and domestic abuse remain silent, not because the abuse did not happen, but because speaking out can feel more frightening than enduring the pain in silence. Fear, shame, stigma, and the............

“Your family’s story is not your story. You have your own story to create.”
At 14, Jessica Nufi discovered the power of her voice. Through ActionAid Nigeria’s Girl Led Research project, she gained confidence, learned about her rights and began encouraging other girls to speak up.
As we continue to mark the International Day of the Girl Child week, we are reminded that investing in girls’ rights means giving them the opportunity to learn, lead and shape their own futures.
Stand with girls. Invest in their rights. Help create change.

At 16, Aisha was expected to marry.
Today, she is back in school, dreaming of becoming a
businesswoman and encouraging other girls to speak
up for their rights.
Her story reminds us why we must end child marriage
and invest in girls’ rights.
This International Day of the Girl Child, stand with girls
like Aisha. ❤️

"Every human deserves to live free from fear. Gender-Based Violence is now officially prohibited and gazetted in our community bye-laws. Violators will face the law. As custodians of culture, the change starts with us." — HRM King Maclean Ubuo, The Okilomu-Ibe, Engenni Kingdom, Rivers State.
True leadership acts decisively. We celebrate HRM King Maclean Ubuo for taking a definitive stand against Gender-Based Violence in Rivers State.
By adapting the Rivers State VAPP Law into gazetted community bye-laws, Engenni Kingdom is setting a brilliant precedent for how cultural institutions can champion human rights and safeguard women, girls, and the vulnerable. The law is clear. The community is ready.
The change has begun.
