FIDA Nigeria holds Spotlight Initiative Phase II introductory meeting with CSOs, women, and girls’ rights advocates within the FCT.

The Spotlight Initiative is a global, multi-year partnership between the European Union and the United Nations (EU-UN) agencies to eliminate all forms of violence against women and girls.

The Initiative seeks to respond to all forms of violence against women and girls, with a particular focus on sexual and gender-based violence and harmful practices, by beaming a spotlight on these existential issues, while placing them at the center of a collective drive for gender equality and women’s empowerment, in line with the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
