SOS Children’s Villages Nigeria, in partnership with the Federal Ministry of Women Affairs, convened a two-day National Alternative Care Consultative Forum under the EU-funded “Strengthening Childcare and Protection Systems in Nigeria” project.

The forum brought together representatives from 35 state Ministries of Women Affairs, child protection partners, and experts to develop practical pathways for implementing alternative care systems at state level. Key discussions focused on deinstitutionalising orphanages, strengthening family- and community-based care, and improving child protection systems.
The forum also aimed to secure state-level commitment and concrete action towards implementing the National Guidelines for Alternative Care, ensuring children grow up in safe, nurturing, and supportive family environments.

SOS Children’s Villages Nigeria, in collaboration with the Federal Ministry of Women Affairs, organised a two-day National Alternative Care Consultative Forum under the EU-funded project, “Strengthening Childcare and Protection Systems in Nigeria.”

The forum brought together Permanent Secretaries and Directors from the Ministries of Women Affairs across 35 states of the federation, alongside child care partners, key stakeholders, and child protection experts.

The primary objective of the forum was to identify and outline key pathways for the implementation of alternative care systems at the state level. Discussions also focused on accelerating the deinstitutionalization of orphanages and strengthening family- and community-based care solutions to ensure that children grow up in safe, nurturing, and supportive environments.

 The forum further sought to mobilise and get commitment from state actors to take concrete action towards implementing the National Guidelines for Alternative Care and strengthening child protection systems across Nigeria.

After the devastating 2025 floods in Mokwa, Niger State, women received livelihood grants through the continued support of SOS Children’s Villages to rebuild their businesses and support their families.
Today, we are seeing the impact, women raising poultry, generating income and rebuilding their lives with dignity. 
 
Recovery is possible when communities are supported to rebuild.
 
Together, we can help more families turn recovery into opportunity.

On this World Humanitarian Day, SOS children’s Villages Nigeria honours the people who choose to show up in times of crisis, uncertainty and need.

From supporting children and families to standing alongside communities and creating opportunities for young people, humanitarian action is ultimately about people: their dignity, their resilience, and their right to hope for a better future.

Today, we celebrate everyone working to make that future possible.

Young people may come from different backgrounds and face different realities, but many share the same hopes: to learn, grow, be heard, create opportunities and build a future they can be proud of.

This International Youth Day, SOS Children’s Villages celebrate the courage, creativity and potential of young people — and reaffirm our commitment to creating a world where every young person has the opportunity to thrive.

Happy International Youth Day!
