We believe that achieving a world that is free of bias and discrimination starts with education. We remain committed to our Girls’ Education Program and would like to thank our donors @radiocacanft@BundleAfrica for their continuous support.
On Women’s Day, the social, political & economic achievements of women are celebrated around the globe. Gender discrimination continues to threaten the lives of women and girls everywhere, so while we celebrate achievements, we must also highlight consequential failures.
The Feminist Coalition is not only dissapointed, but increasingly worried, following a recent decision by the Nigerian National Assembly to reject five bills that challenged widespread gender inequality.
Breaking the bias includes breaking constitutional biases and this decision by the National Assembly only contributes to the bias, limiting opportunities for Nigerian women. To bridge the gender gap, progressive legislation must be passed into law. Nigerian women deserve better.
