Engaging men and boys in the fight against gender-based violence

from Women Leading Change (Sahel and West Africa Club OECD/SWAC) · host Women Leading Change

In North-Central Nigeria, intracommunal conflict related to the sharing of water, land, and other resources, has led to unprecedented levels of gender-based violence (GBV). In this episode, Dr Victoria Daaor, Executive Director of the Elohim Foundation, explains that addressing the underlying causes of GBV requires engaging women, men, girls, and boys to challenge harmful gender norms and promote equitable relationships. The Elohim Foundation is a human rights, peace and development organisation in north central Nigeria committed to the well-being of vulnerable groups, especially youth and women. Our host is Dr Olajumoke (Jumo) Ayandele, postdoctoral Research Fellow at New York University Centre for the study of Africa and the African Diaspora.

Dans cet épisode, Dr Victoria Daaor, directrice exécutive de la Fondation Elohim, explique comment la lutte contre les causes profondes des violences sexistes passe par la mobilisation des femmes et des hommes, et des filles et des garçons, afin de libérer la société des préjugés sexistes et de promouvoir des relations sous le signe de l’équité. Organisation de défense des droits humains, de la paix et du développement située dans le centre-nord du Nigéria, la Fondation Elohim s’engage en faveur du bien-être des groupes vulnérables, notamment des jeunes et des femmes.
