As an organization actively engaged in peacebuilding, we consider it essential to mark the International Day of Reflection on the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda.

Remembering history reminds us, now more than ever, of the urgent need for peaceful coexistence, tolerance, and unity in Nigeria.

In light of ongoing attacks, tensions, and violence, we call on the Government to reinforce efforts to protect all citizens, while strengthening justice systems to ensure accountability for perpetrators of violence and armed groups.

At the same time, we all share a responsibility to reject hate, promote dialogue, and build bridges across communities.

Peace must be protected collectively and intentionally.

On this World Health Day, we unite with World Health Organization (WHO) and the global community under the theme “Together for Health: Stand with Science.” We celebrate the power of scientific collaboration in protecting the health and well-being of all people especially women and girls, including those with disabilities.

This year-long campaign highlights both groundbreaking scientific achievements and the importance of multilateral cooperation in translating evidence into meaningful action.

Long live scientific innovation. Long live the health of women and girls.

In honor of World Autism Awareness Day 2026 and the UN’s theme, "Autism and Humanity – Every Life Has Value," it is vital to shine a light on those who often go unseen: women and girls.

Because of societal expectations and the ability to "mask," many autistic women remain undiagnosed for decades. This isn't just about a label; it’s about understanding your own mind and reclaiming your worth.

How Autism Often Surfaces in Women and Girls
The "female phenotype" of autism can look very different from traditional stereotypes. Here are a few ways it commonly manifests:

1. Social Masking: You might spend an exhausting amount of energy mimicking social cues, rehearsing conversations, or forcing eye contact to "fit in."
2. Intense, Focused Interests: Rather than "typical" autistic interests, yours might be centered on psychology, fiction, animals, or specific eras of history, pursued with deep intensity.
3. Sensory Sensitivity: Feeling physically overwhelmed by "normal" environments like the hum of a refrigerator, the texture of certain clothes, or the brightness of a grocery store.
4. Social Exhaustion: Feeling a profound need to "recharge" in total solitude after even minor social interactions.

4. Internalized Anxiety: Many women are misdiagnosed with Generalized Anxiety or Depression because their autistic struggles are turned inward rather than outward.

Your Life Has Value
Recognizing these traits isn't about finding what is "wrong" with you; it’s about finding what is true about you. As the UN emphasizes this year, neurodiversity is a source of creativity and resilience that our world desperately needs.

Please note that If these signs resonate with you, or if you feel you’ve spent your life viewing the world through a different lens than those around you, you don't have to navigate it alone. We encourage you to reach out to a healthcare professional or a specialist in neurodiversity. Seeking a professional evaluation is a powerful step toward self-advocacy and accessing the support you deserve.

In the month of April, we hope to see more grassroots-led initiatives that are representative of women and girls, actively including persons with disabilities, and advancing their rights.

We are excited to share that since November 2025, we have been part of the PLRCAP NGOHUB and NORCAP - part of the Norwegian Refugee Council Organizational Capacity Strengthening Programme, a transformative journey that is reshaping how we deliver impact.

Through intensive weekly masterclasses and tailored one-on-one mentorship, we have gained practical insights into strengthening our systems, improving accountability, and positioning our organization for greater scale and sustainability.

This process has sparked a critical shift. We are currently refining our organizational strategy, reviewing our thematic priorities, and aligning every intervention more intentionally with long-term, measurable impact.

As a result, you may have noticed a reduction in some of our field activities. This is a deliberate step that allows us to rebuild stronger structures, deepen our approach, and ensure that our future interventions are even more effective, inclusive, and sustainable.

In the coming weeks, we will be unveiling our updated strategic direction and priority focus areas. We are particularly excited about the opportunities this creates for deeper collaboration, stronger partnerships, and more impactful programming.

We invite partners, donors, and stakeholders who are passionate about sustainable development to engage with us as we enter this new phase of growth.

The best is yet to come.

Sexual violence is not culture. It is a crime.

What happened at the Ozoro Festival is not isolated. It reflects a dangerous pattern where r**e is trivialized, joked about, and even normalized, especially online. When we laugh, excuse, or stay silent, we create an environment where violence is allowed to grow.

Let’s be clear.
R**e is an act of power, hate, and control. It is part of a broader system of violence against women and girls, and it must be confronted as such.

No tradition, belief, or social rule should ever place women and girls at risk. Any practice that enables harm must be questioned, reformed, or removed.

This is not a “women’s issue” alone.
Men must be part of this conversation by calling out harmful behavior, rejecting r**e culture, and refusing to normalize violence in any form.

At the same time, sexual violence affects many, including boys and men, and all survivors deserve to be heard and protected. Recognizing this does not weaken the fight. It strengthens it.

What weakens the fight is distraction, denial, and online hostility that shuts down real conversations.

We need collective responsibility:
Stop trivializing r**e in jokes, comments, and content
Challenge victim blaming wherever it appears
Create safe spaces for survivors to speak
Demand accountability for perpetrators

Justice must be served. Silence is not an option.
