Safeguarding is not just a policy at THEDI, it is a culture we actively build every single day.

Following our participation in the PSEAH (Prevention of and Response to Sexual Exploitation, Abuse and Harassment) Training, THEDI took an important and intentional next step by conducting a Mandatory PSEAH Step-Down Training for all staff in Gombe State.

Through this step-down training our team was equipped and re-aligned on Preventing abuse of power in all its forms, Strengthening safe and confidential reporting systems, Protecting survivors with dignity and compassion and Ensuring accountability at every level of our organization.

At THEDI we are committed to promoting safe, respectful and accountable environments for our staffs, our volunteers and every community we are privileged to serve.

Safeguarding is not a box to tick.
It is a shared responsibility that every member of our team owns fully, intentionally and without compromise.

We are proud of our team for embracing this training with the seriousness and commitment it deserves.

Over the past 2 week, THEDI took its commitment from words to action across communities within Gombe State conducting Free HIV Testing Services, STI Screening and Hepatitis Screening across Boh Shongom LGA, Balanga LGA and Kaltungo LGA

Knowing your status and keeping updated track of your health is very important. This is because early detection saves lives and access to information changes lives

To every partner, volunteer, community leaders and members who made these outreaches possible, we specially thank you. We will continue to do our part in ensuring that underserved communities get access to healthcare.

Building Safer Spaces and Protecting Every Voice

THEDI is committed to promoting safe, respectful, and accountable environments for staff, volunteers, and the communities we serve.

Our participation in the PSEAH (Prevention of and Response to Sexual Exploitation, Abuse and Harassment) training reinforces the importance of preventing abuse of power, strengthening safe reporting systems, protecting survivors, and ensuring accountability at every level.

Because safeguarding is more than a policy, it’s a shared responsibility.

WORLD MENTAL HEALTH DAY

Sometimes, the people who seem fine on the outside are carrying more than we know. Every story matters. Every voice deserves to be heard, respected, and included in decisions that affect people's lives.

This year’s theme, “Lived Experiences Heard: Real Voices, Real Changes,” reminds us that listening is only the beginning. We must create spaces where people with lived experience help shape mental health policies, services, and the support they need.

At THEDI, we believe everyone deserves to be heard, understood, and supported on their mental health journey.

We can break the stigma, listen to real stories, include them in policy and decision making and turn compassion into action. Every voice matters and every story deserves to be heard.

Mental health is an important part of our overall well-being, yet most often we do not prioritize our mental health. Many people continue to struggle in silence because of stigma, lack of access to proper support and care, fear, or the feeling that they should simply “be strong.”

Healing should not be considered as weakness. Asking for help is not failure. Acknowledging that we need support and help is bravery.

Together, we can create communities where people are encouraged to speak without shame, where we listen without judgment and where access to the support people need is made easy and available.

We need to understand that caring for mental health is not just an individual responsibility. it is something we can all contribute to.

Start the conversation, Listen with empathy and Support without judgment.

This new week, be a little kinder to yourself

You do not have to have it all figured out. You do not have to be everything to everyone. And you certainly do not have to keep measuring your worth against a standard that was never designed for you.

You are enough!

A kind reminder that Self acceptance is not giving up on growth. it is choosing to grow from a place of love rather than a place of shame.

As we count down to World Mental Health Day, we encourage you to carry this into your week.

Your mind deserves the same grace you so freely extend to everyone else.

Start there. 💚

The world does not change because people had good intentions . it changes when people get up, show up and refuse to wait for a perfect moment that might never come.

Your community is not waiting for someone else. It is waiting for you.

This week, dream less, do more. Be a part of positive change. 🌍

In the past two weeks diphtheria cases have surged alarmingly across multiple Nigerian states named Plateau, Zamfara, Kano, Borno, Bauchi, Kaduna, Katsina and Sokoto with over 10,000 confirmed cases recorded in 2026 alone according to the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC)

Many of the victims are children, most of whom were unvaccinated and the outbreak is still spreading. We urge every citizen to be vigilant and report suspected cases to health care facilities closest to them. People should get vaccinated and also observe preventive measures to combat the spread of diphtheria.

To our government and health authorities, we are calling for urgent and aggressive vaccination drives across all affected states, immediate deployment of medical supplies and treatment resources to frontline communities and a coordinated national response that matches the scale of this crisis.

The lives of Nigerians particularly our children depend on swift, decisive and compassionate action. Let us all
stay alert, stay protected and look out for one another.
