During the NGO CSW 68th Session, WRAHP hosted a parallel virtual event with the theme: Accelerating the Achievement of Gender Equality and Women Empowerment: The Role of State and Non-State Actors.

The event aimed to explore and address challenges hindering gender equality, particularly poverty and lack of access to essential services, while identifying the crucial roles of both state and non-state actors in advancing gender equality and women’s empowerment.

The panellists included:

  • Nkechi Ilochi-Kanny, Director, Resource Mobilization and Innovation, ActionAid Nigeria
  • Titilola Vivour-Adeniyi, Executive Secretary, Lagos State Domestic and Sexual Violence Agency (DSVA)

Some of the key points that emerged from the event were ;

  • Challenges Faced: Participants highlighted how entrenched social norms, limited resources, and counter-narratives continue to impede efforts toward gender equality.
  • Role of Actors: It was emphasized that governments must allocate resources and enforce policies, while non-state actors play a crucial role through advocacy and support services.
  • Priority for Women-Led Organizations: Funders were urged to prioritize women-led organizations to ensure credibility and strategic importance in advancing gender equality.
  • Importance of Collaboration: Collaboration over competition with government was stressed as vital for maximizing resources and effectiveness.
  • Enhancing Accessibility: Participants underscored the urgent need to improve accessibility to survivor-centered services and access to justice.
  • Mainstreaming Interventions: Engaging political will and community ownership were identified as essential for effective engagement and mainstreaming interventions.
  • Engaging Men as Allies: Participants emphasized the importance of engaging men as allies to challenge stereotypes and support women’s empowerment.
  • Private Sector Involvement: The need for private sector involvement, institutional support for women-led organizations, and changing narratives around economic empowerment were highlighted as critical areas for progress.

At WRAHP, we believe that everyone has a role to play in advancing the acceleration of gender equality and women empowerment in the society.

STAKEHOLDERS’ DIALOGUES ON SGBV: EMPOWERING CHANGE IN LAGOS STATE

Women’s Rights and Health Project (WRAHP), through her project titled “Improving Gender Equality and Protection from Sexual and Gender-Based Violence for Women and Girls in Lagos State through Capacity Building, Awareness-Raising, and Psychosocial Support Services,” with support from the Canada Fund for Local Initiatives (CFLI), organized a one-day stakeholders’ dialogue for key influencers of opinion. This event, held on January 31, 2024, brought together 60 influential individuals, including traditional rulers and opinion leaders, all committed to effecting change in their communities.

Alimosho LGA has the highest incidence of domestic violence, particularly SGBV, making it imperative to address this issue urgently. Data from the Lagos State Domestic and Sexual Violence Agency (DSVA) paints a stark reality, with over 4,800 reported cases between September 2021 and July 2022. Within this landscape, Alimosho emerges as a hotspot for both adult and child victims.

The primary objectives of this dialogue were:

  1. Enhancing Stakeholders’ Understanding: To deepen stakeholders’ comprehension of the Lagos State GBV Law, which prohibits all forms of sexual and gender-based violence. Participants explored effective strategies to enforce this law within the six adopted communities.
  2. Capacity Building and Awareness-Raising: Equipping stakeholders with the knowledge and skills necessary to identify, prevent, and respond to SGBV effectively.

The One Day Stakeholders’ Dialogues on SGBV in Alimosho LGA unfolded as a dynamic and participatory event. Community leaders, influencers, and passionate advocates convened to address the pressing issue of sexual and gender-based violence.

WRAHP’s ED Bose Ironsi, welcomed the participants and urged everyone to embrace their roles in combating SGBV within their community.

Mrs. Bello Oluwakemi, the field coordinator from the Lagos Domestic and Sexual Violence Agency, engaged the audience through her presentation, “Shielding against Domestic & Sexual Violence.”. She also navigated the provisions of the Protection Against Domestic Violence Law of Lagos State. Participants learned about reporting pathways, empowering them to take decisive action.

Among the highlights was the panel session, which featured representatives from diverse sectors, including law enforcement, community leadership, and support services. Their insights shed light on the progress made and the collaborative efforts underway to address SGBV. From improved reporting mechanisms to enhanced community awareness, each stakeholder shared their organization’s contributions and commitments to combating SGBV.

Echoes of Community Engagement around SGBV

The Police – Family Support Unit (FSU):

Through the training from WRAHP, we now follow the right procedures to ensure justice for SGBV survivors. When cases arise, we swiftly refer individuals to the Ireti Resource Center.

(Inspector Yemi Amoo, Focal Person, Family Support Unit, Igando Police Station)

  1. Community Leaders:

Community leaders stand as beacons of change. Through WRAHP’s training and activities, our consciousness has been shifted towards SGBV. The slogan “See something, say something, and do something immediately” reverberates through our community as a call to action.

(Mr Rabiu Kazeem, CDC Chairman, Egbe Idimu)

  • Lagos Neighbourhood Safety Corps (LNSC):

We ensure swift response to immediate rescue survivors until the police arrive, and this has helped in ensuring immediate intervention.

 (Mrs Toriola Abiodun, Neighborhood Corps Superintendent, Head of Operations, First Responder)

  • League of Imams:

Through the training we have received from WRAHP, we understand that cases of SGBV are not meant to be dismissed without proper intervention.  We know that not all cases can be handled in the Mosque or at the police counter. We know when to guide individuals to the FSU/Gender Unit, or WRAHP. Our roles extend beyond religious counsel; it now encompass informed referrals.

 (Alhaji Salaudeen Mukaila, Chief Imam Alimosho, Council of Imams)
