The rapid rise of new forms of GBV facilitated by ICT has exposed deficiencies in legal frameworks, leaving parliamentarians across Nigeria with a new and emerging challenge that has yet to be addressed through an effective legislative response. Together, we can!

This serves as another reminder of the importance of a gender-sensitive parliament. Such an approach can help dismantle barriers to women's full participation in society while empowering both men and women to shape their lives and make informed decisions.

Educating and training girls is smart economics. It prepares them to make decisions concerning their lives now and in the future. GBV centers also need to be properly funded to enable them to offer support.

Governments can significantly impact women and girls affected by violence or crises by increasing funding for the enforcement of the Violence Against Persons Prohibition (VAPP) Act and welfare institutions. They should also support national women's rights organizations and invest in life-saving programs.

Gender-based violence knows no boundaries, it is not associated with an age group, race, and social class. Women and girls experience physical and economic abuse in communities as well as the workplace. Government should pass laws that do not tolerate gender-based violence and ensure offenders face the consequences of their actions. Awareness is not enough!
