Project Overview:  Goal(s) and Outcome(s)

  • The Women’s Voice and Leadership Nigeria Project is a five-year Global Affairs Canada development assistance programme in Nigeria. The goal is to support the capacity and activities of local women’s organizations and movements seeking to empower women and girls, advance the protection of women’s and girls’ rights and achieve gender equality in the country. This will be done through provision of multiple layers of funding and tailored capacity building support to these organisations. The project is being implemented in six states Bauchi, Enugu, Cross Rivers, Kebbi, Kwara, Lagos and the Federal Capital Territory.
  • The violation of the rights of women and girls is pervasive across all spheres of life in Nigeria, including economic disempowerment, political exclusion, and sexual and gender-based violence. Gender equality is undermined by patriarchal systems and beliefs that favour the interests of men above those of women. These discriminatory laws and practices affect a wide range of issues, such as women’s freedom of movement, marriage, inheritance, and autonomy. For many years the women’s rights groups in Nigeria have been organizing and mobilizing actions to advance the rights of women and girls. Their work is continuously undermined by these age-long patriarchal systems and norms. We recognise that dismantling these systems and norms requires sustained action. It is based on this, that the project seeks to employ technology and media as a tool for challenging oppressive harmful traditional and socio-cultural norms in Nigeria through a low-cost media campaign approach that will contribute to women and girls enjoying their rights in project states and national.
