Happy Independence Day, Nigeria! 🇳🇬
Today, we celebrate our nation and the hope of a better future for every child.
Let every girl have the freedom to learn, grow, dream and choose her future.

We concluded the meeting with a key discussion on connecting the National Strategy and Costed Action Plan to Bauchi State: Our agreed focus state for implementation from 2027 to 2030.
The session pushed us to shift from a national framework to practical, state-level action. We explored what needs to happen, who must be involved, and how the strategy can deliver measurable change for girls and communities in Bauchi.

It was a fitting close to conversations centred on leadership, transformative action, and collective ownership. The real work now begins: turning strategy into action, and action into lasting change.

Another day of learning, reflection and collective action with members of the National Steering Committee and other strategic members of the Coalition.

We explored what a transformative opportunity means, identified the opportunities within our context, and worked towards developing a transformative opportunity proposal.
Most importantly, we came together to identify and agree on one key transformative action that, if effectively implemented, can contribute significantly to ending child marriage in Nigeria.

We concluded the Coalition's Leadership Strengthening Workshop with a focus on governance (led by Dr. Vincent), with a practical simulation and case study.

The elected State Focal Persons were inaugurated, marking the start of real work beyond the workshop.

Participants evaluated the workshop and reflected on takeaways.

Four days of learning, teamwork and connections and now time to put it into action. A huge thank you to Girls Not Brides for making this possible.

Day 2 | Learning, Connection & Collective Leadership

Day 2 of the Coalition Leadership Strengthening Workshop blended learning, reflection, teamwork and high energy!

We explored what effective leadership looks like in a coalition through group activities that pushed us to listen, think together and find shared solutions. Energisers kept the room lively with laughter and reconnection.
A key moment was the appointment of a Safeguarding Focal Person, a clear step toward embedding safeguarding in how we work and create safe spaces.
Strong coalitions are built on trust, accountability, collaboration and the willingness to learn from one another.

Two days in, we’re already gaining so much as we strengthen the leadership needed to end child marriage in Nigeria.

DAY 1 | COALITION LEADERSHIP STRENGTHENING WORKSHOP

Today, we officially commenced the Coalition Leadership Strengthening Workshop, bringing together Executive members of the Coalition of Civil Society Organizations on Ending Child Marriage in Nigeria for days of learning, reflection, collaboration and strategic engagement.

The workshop, supported by Girls Not Brides, provides an important opportunity to strengthen the leadership capacity of coalition members and deepen our collective commitment to ending child marriage in Nigeria.

Day 1 was particularly about leadership; what it means to lead within a coalition, how we influence change, and how effective leadership can translate collective commitment into sustainable action.

As civil society organisations working across different contexts, our strength lies not only in the work we do individually, but also in our ability to work together, build trust, share knowledge, coordinate our efforts and amplify the voices of girls and communities.

As we begin this journey, we look forward to strengthening the collective leadership needed to accelerate progress towards a Nigeria where every girl can grow, learn, make informed choices and reach her full potential free from child marriage.
