#Whistleblower #SDG16
Legislation is needed to clarify that whistleblowing should be viewed positively, like compliance, rather than negatively, like a form of corporate treachery that eventually unravels in costly, exhausting & embarrassing legal battles

Whistleblowers need one place to go to find out where they stand, get support and advice, source the financial means to fight retaliation and get appropriate compensation for their damaged careers—for most #whistleblowers, whistleblowing is career ending

@Bolarinwaiyanu of @BudgITng, a Nigerian civic tech organisation aimed at raising the standards of transparency, citizen engagement & accountability spoke on getting Nigerians to become more active in governance beyond social media.
#SIC2019 #GlobalGoals #SDG16 #OandoIsNigeria
#SIC2019 #GlobalGoals #SDG16 #OandoIsNigeria
The day was filled with brainstorming around solving social issues such as an active feedback mechanism, accessible justice systems for all, inclusion, as well as corporate & government accountability.

(1/5) Meet @thefunkeadeoye, the winner of the #SDG16 Innovation Challenge Abuja edition. She is a Nigerian lawyer, Social Justice Advocate and International Development Enthusiast. #SIC2019
(2/5) She founded Hope Behind Bars Africa in 2018 to increase access to justice for indigent inmates across Nigerian prison facilities, as well as help correctional facilities achieve their aim of rehabilitation and reintegration of inmates. #SIC2019
(3/5) As a lawyer with over 6 years’ experience, she has handled over 20 pro-bono cases from the lowest courts up to the Court of Appeal, most of which she secured acquittal for the inmates who had been wrongly accused. #SIC2019
Around the world, advances in promoting the rule of law and access to justice are uneven.
#SIC2019 #SDG16 #GlobalGoals
#SIC2019 #SDG16 #GlobalGoals
In Nigeria, ongoing insecurity & high-profile accountability challenges make attaining the #SDG16 goal to “promote peaceful & inclusive societies for sustainable development,access to justice for all & build effective,accountable & inclusive institutions at all levels” difficult.
Due to the structure of the Nigerian political, social and economic life, the youth who make up over 50% of the population, and have creative and innovative solutions around these issues aren’t utilised in achieving the SDGs. #SIC2019 #GlobalGoals
