FIDA Nigeria Hosts Impactful Forum for Men Promoting Gender Justice in Jos

Last week, FIDA Nigeria, with the support of the Ford Foundation, convened an impactful 2nd Bi-Annual Shared Learning Forum for Men Promoting Gender Justice in Jos, Plateau State.

The event brought together men from diverse backgrounds who are passionate about promoting gender equality and challenging gender-based violence (GBV) within their communities. Held at the Villa Grand Hotel, the forum featured engaging panel sessions on Mobilizing Male Voices for GBV Prevention and Sustaining Male Advocacy for Gender Justice, which sparked meaningful conversations and reflection.

One of the forum’s most compelling moments was the presentation of community success stories, highlighting the positive outcomes of grassroots efforts in GBV prevention and male-led advocacy.

The forum served as a platform for learning, sharing experiences, and strengthening male involvement in the movement for justice, equity, and safer communities.

FIDA Nigeria remains committed to building inclusive spaces where all voices—especially those of male allies—are empowered to contribute to lasting social change.
