The Initiative for Equal Rights-TIERs

The Initiative for Equal Rights-TIERs We’re committed to bringing about a society that is free from discrimination and harm on the grounds of s*xual orientation.

The Initiative for Equal Rights (TIERs) is a registered non-profit organisation working to create a society where human rights are guaranteed regardless of gender identity, s*xual orientation, or status. The Initiative for Equal Rights (TIERs) is a Nigeria-based registered non-for-profit organization working to protect and promote the human rights of s*xual minorities nationally and regionally. We work towards this goal through education, empowerment and engagement with the many public in Nigeria. We were founded in 2006 as a response to the discrimination and marginalization of s*xual minorities in both HIV prevention programming and mainstream human rights work.

Time to put your s*xual health knowledge to the test!
Go through our Sexual Health Survival Bingo and tick off every experience that sounds familiar. From awkward conversations to relatable s*xual health moments! And while you’re counting, remember that regular testing, protection, consent, knowing your status, and honest conversations are all part of taking care of your s*xual health.
Finished counting? Drop your scores in the comments! 👇🏽😂

Preparation is not fear; it is power.
Knowing your options before you arrive at a health facility means you stay in control of your own healthcare experience. That control matters, especially when the system doesn't always make space for it.
Take a few minutes before your next appointment to know your rights and your options. It could change how the whole visit goes.

Bis*xuality does not need to make sense to everyone else to be real.
June Jordan connected it to something bigger: freedom.
The freedom to exist without constantly being asked to explain yourself. The freedom to be attracted to more than one gender without having to "pick a side". The freedom to have your identity recognised even when your current relationship does not fit someone's idea of what bis*xuality should look like.
And being with someone of a particular gender does not erase everything about who you are.
This Bis*xual Visibility Week, we are celebrating bis*xual people in all their complexity, and making space for identities that have too often been questioned, dismissed, or misunderstood.

For a lot of people, asking "what's wrong with you?" misses the point and skips over what's actually happening around someone: rejection, fear of being found out, isolation, the daily cost of staying safe, and so much more.
Changing the narrative starts with a different question: what's happening to you?
If you or someone you know is struggling, help is available. Text 09139580380 on WhatsApp.

How much of your own body were you actually taught about?

For a lot of people, s*x education stopped at "don't get pregnant" and never got to the parts that actually matter day-to-day: what the luteal phase does to your mood and energy, what your pelvic floor is responsible for, how STI testing actually works, what an or**sm involves.

This Women's Health Week, we are unpacking the things that should have come with instructions but didn't. If something on this list is new to you, that's not a personal failing. Take a look, ask questions, and if you need to talk to someone, TIERs Doctor is available on WhatsApp: 09139580380.

What’s 1 thing you’re doing to prioritize your well-being this week?

We are kicking off Day 1 of Women’s Health Week by highlighting an essential yet frequently forgotten priority: self-preservation.

Inspired by Audre Lorde’s reflections on understanding the toll of overextension, we are reminded to proactively nurture our bodies before exhaustion forces us to pause.

Throughout this week, our focus is on honoring the aspects of women’s health that are too often deprioritized:
Rest as health care
Boundaries as health care
Listening to your body’s signals as health care

How do you change a system when surviving it already takes so much of your energy?

We’re constantly memorising what to say and what not to say. We have to ask more of ourselves and the people with power.
Accountability can look like calling out abuse of power and refusing to accept harmful policies as something people simply have to live with.

Change needs people willing to ask, "Who is responsible for this, and what are they going to do

What is one thing Nigerians have been told to "just manage" that you think should actually change?
