When communities monitor services, health systems respond.

At Baba Azimi Foundation, we believe lasting change happens when communities are not treated as passive beneficiaries, but as active leaders of accountability.
Through our community-led monitoring work in Jigawa State, local voices are helping strengthen malaria service delivery, improve accountability around health commodities, and support better outcomes for pregnant women. So far, 5,000+ pregnant women have been supported to take IPT under health-worker observation—an important step in preventing malaria in pregnancy and protecting both mothers and babies.
This is what locally led change looks like: communities identifying gaps, engaging providers, and pushing for better, more responsive systems.
For partners and funders looking to invest in credible, community-rooted impact, BAF is building practical models that connect voice, accountability, and results.

Safe spaces change what girls believe is possible.
When girls have a place to gather, learn, ask questions, speak freely, and support one another, they begin to build confidence, leadership, knowledge, and sisterhood.
Girls Resource Centers can become the spaces where adolescent girls discover their voice, understand their rights, access resources, and prepare to lead change in their communities.
Girls do not only need advice.
They need space.

A Girls Resource Center is not a luxury.
It is a lifeline.
For many adolescent girls, a safe space can mean access to information, mentorship, menstrual health support, leadership training, psychosocial support, digital learning, protection referral pathways, and opportunities they may not find anywhere else.
Girls Resource Centers can help girls stay connected, confident, informed, protected, and prepared for the future.
Every girl deserves a place where she can ask questions without shame, learn without fear, and grow without being silenced.

Save this post if you believe girls deserve safe spaces in every community.

Boys have football fields. Men have community spots. Women have development centers.

But what do girls have?

Adolescent girls also need safe spaces where they can learn, grow, organise, speak, and access the resources they need to thrive.

A Girls Resource Center is not a luxury. It is a safe space for confidence, leadership, learning, protection, mentorship, dignity, and opportunity.

Through the Girls Resource Center Now Campaign, the Girls Research & Action Group is calling for dedicated spaces for adolescent girls in every community.
Girls deserve more than temporary attention.
Girls deserve spaces that belong to them.

Thank you SEEII for scaling Agroecology training to Jos. We need more smallholder farmers to embrace agroecology everywhere. Smallholder women farmers are not just farming. They are leading resilience.

Behind every harvest is a story of labour, adaptation, and courage.
Smallholder women farmers are carrying the burden of rising costs, climate uncertainty and unequal access to land and opportunities. Yet they continue to feed households, support local markets and hold communities together.
Our work supports women farmers with practical agroecology skills, stronger community voice and pathways to greater resilience and economic participation.
The future of sustainable agriculture must include women not as an afterthought, but as leaders.

We need more partners like SEEII to scale up agroecology everywhere. Partner with Baba Azimi Foundation to scale women-led solutions for climate resilience and just food systems.

“Invest in Women Farmers. Build Resilient Communities.”

What if the fastest route to community resilience is to invest in the women already feeding it?

Across Jigawa, smallholder women farmers are proving that agroecology is not only good for the environment, it is good for livelihoods, food systems, and local resilience.

Through community-based training, women are learning practical, low-cost farming methods that help reduce dependence on expensive external inputs, improve soil health, and strengthen their ability to cope with climate shocks. They are also building confidence to speak, organize, and lead in spaces where decisions about farming, markets, and community priorities are made.
When women farmers gain access to knowledge, stronger networks, better market pathways, and greater voice, the impact goes beyond the farm. Families eat better. Household costs reduce. Community resilience grows.

Baba Azimi Foundation is working to ensure that women farmers are not treated as beneficiaries at the margins, but as leaders at the centre of climate justice and local development.

We are open to partnerships with donors, foundations, and institutions ready to scale women-led agroecology, climate resilience and economic justice in Northern Nigeria.

A girl who understands her power can change more than her own future.

Across communities in Jigawa State, Baba Azimi Foundation is working with adolescent girls to build confidence, leadership, voice, and dignity.

Through girl-led safe spaces, menstrual health education, dignity kit support, safeguarding conversations and advocacy training, girls are learning that their experiences matter and their voices can influence decisions.

For many girls, access to menstrual health information and basic dignity materials is not only about hygiene. It is about school attendance, self-esteem, safety and the freedom to participate fully in community life.

At BAF, we believe girls should not only be reached as beneficiaries. They should be supported as researchers, advocates, storytellers, campaigners and leaders.

When girls rise, families listen. Schools respond. Communities begin to shift.

Partner with Baba Azimi Foundation to invest in girl-led change, menstrual dignity, and safer communities for adolescent girls in Northern Nigeria.
