Deciding if or when to have a child is deeply personal. Whether someone is in school, raising a family, working to make ends meet, or rebuilding life after displacement, they deserve clear information and care that respects their choice.

This World Contraception Day, we call for contraception services that people can reach and use without shame, pressure or discrimination. A person should be able to ask questions, understand their options and decide what is right for them.

Your body. Your choice. Your future.

Making governance more inclusive starts with listening to communities.

Spring of Hope Nigeria participated in the two-day Civic Action Teams (CivActs) State-Based Participatory Governance and Rights-Based Engagement Workshop for Benue State, organised by Accountability Lab Nigeria. Our MEAL Officer, Peter Gwer, joined fellow civil society actors and stakeholders to explore practical ways to strengthen citizen participation and accountability.

The workshop covered rights-based engagement, conflict-sensitive problem-solving, ethical communication, community feedback, inclusion and electoral participation. Participants also discussed how evidence and appropriate referral pathways can help communities raise concerns and seek accountability.

Drawing on Spring of Hope’s work, Peter shared perspectives on community accountability and disability inclusion. He emphasised that women, persons with disabilities, young people, displaced persons and other marginalised groups need genuine opportunities to shape decisions that affect their lives.

For us, the lesson is clear: people are rights-holders and partners in development. In Benue, where many communities face conflict, displacement and exclusion, their voices must help guide the decisions and services intended for them.

Thank you to Accountability Lab Nigeria for convening this learning space and to the participating organisations for the exchange.

Spring of Hope Nigeria and Lawyers Alert Nigeria are pleased to announce a new partnership, with funding support from the Embassy of Ireland, to implement the project “ For An Effective Community Policing Committee(CPC)” in Kwande LGA, Benue State.

This 10-month project will expand the People-Centred Public Safety Programme already being implemented in Guma, Katsina-Ala and Agatu LGAs, bringing Kwande into Benue State’s growing community safety architecture.

Through this partnership, an inclusive Community Policing Committee will be established, comprising representatives of security agencies, traditional and religious institutions, women, youth, persons with disabilities and civil society. The project will strengthen community-security collaboration, early warning and early response, women’s participation in peace and security, and community-led conflict prevention.

A key focus will be addressing emerging security and environmental concerns associated with mining activities in Kwande. These include competition over land and natural resources, degradation of farmlands, loss of livelihoods, displacement and the heightened protection risks faced by women and girls in mining-affected communities.

The project will also facilitate capacity building, peer learning with existing CPCs and the development of a two-year Community Safety Action Plan to guide locally owned responses to conflict, protection and public safety in Kwande.

Spring of Hope Nigeria and Lawyers Alert’s appreciate the Embassy of Ireland for supporting this jointly implemented, locally led initiative.

Together, we are strengthening community structures where every voice contributes to peace, safety and accountability.

Happy International Day of ✌️

Peace is more than the absence of conflict. It is the freedom to live, learn, work, and dream without fear.

For communities across Benue State, where conflict has disrupted lives and displaced families, peace is a daily necessity,not just a yearly conversation.

As we mark the International Day of Peace, let us work towards breaking cycles of violence and building communities where

children grow up safe, young people have opportunities, and families can look to the future with hope.

Peace is the legacy we owe the next generation.

Supporting people begins with understanding their wellbeing.

Our team participated in a three-day Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS) Capacity-Building Training under the COMPASS Migration Partnership Fund (MPF) Project in Makurdi, Benue State.

The training strengthened participants’ knowledge of Psychological First Aid (PFA), survivor-centred approaches, case management, referral pathways, and Community Based psychosocial support for vulnerable populations affected by migration, displacement, conflict, and other forms of distress. It also reinforced that MHPSS is not only about treating mental health conditions, but about promoting wellbeing, building resilience, and connecting people to appropriate support services.

A key highlight was the opportunity to learn from experienced professionals, exchange field experiences, and strengthen referral pathways while understanding the importance of working within professional boundaries.

At SHoGDI, these skills will strengthen our work with vulnerable women, girls, young people, IDPs, survivors of GBV, persons with disabilities, and other vulnerable persons, ensuring our programmes continue to provide compassionate, survivor-centred support.

As a new school term begins, thousands of girls in displaced communities across Benue State are watching their dreams wait. While many children walk into classrooms with backpacks and hope, others remain out of school because conflict and displacement have taken away more than just their homes, they’ve taken away opportunities.

Every girl deserves the chance to learn, to dream, and to build a future beyond the crisis she was born into.

This school term, let’s do more than celebrate new beginnings. Let’s speak up for the girls whose seats remain empty and work towards a future where every child has access to safe, inclusive, and quality education.

Because every girl deserves the chance to learn, dream, and thrive. 💙

When a survivor of sexual abuse speaks up, they don’t need judgment or blame-they need compassion, support, and to be believed.
Let’s replace harmful questions with empathy and create a world where survivors feel safe to speak, knowing they’ll be met with dignity, not doubt.

26/08/2026

Real change doesn’t always begin with grand gestures. Sometimes, it starts with choosing empathy over indifference, speaking up for someone whose voice isn’t being heard, or taking one small action that creates a ripple of hope.

Because compassion doesn’t just inspire change, it creates it.
