Premiering December 1, 2025 on our YouTube Channel: The Moment We Stand
A story that confronts silence, challenges power, and exposes the lived realities of young women on our campuses, where 7 in 10 female students have experienced sexual harassment. It highlights the need for safer learning spaces for everyone across campus communities especially women and girls, where their voices are heard, their boundaries respected, and their futures protected.
As the world marks the 16 Days of Activism under the theme “Unite to End Digital Violence Against All Women and Girls,” this film becomes our reminder that harm, online or offline, must be met with collective action and accountability.
The moment we stand is the moment change begins.

From Collaboration to Research: Advancing the SNAP Project in Ondo State. 💙
As part of the Social Norms Approach to GBV Policies Implementation and Enforcement (SNAP) Project, Gender Mobile Initiative engaged key stakeholders across Ondo State, including the Ministry of Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, FIDA Ondo, the Ministry of Women Affairs and Social Development, and the Ministry of Justice. These engagements focused on strengthening collaboration, exploring opportunities for legal support, referrals, community engagement, research and capacity building, and reinforcing the role of institutions and communities in preventing and responding to GBV.
With these critical partnerships taking shape, the SNAP Project has now moved into its research phase, bringing Research Leads together to align on the approach, roles and fieldwork ahead. Grounded in evidence, community voices and stakeholder collaboration, we are taking another step towards strengthening GBV policy implementation and enforcement in Ondo State.
From conversations to collaboration. From collaboration to evidence. The work continues. 💙

Our findings from tertiary institutions surveyed in Kano State reveal that only 28.6% reported having budget allocations for policy implementation.
Without dedicated resources, institutional policies can be difficult to translate into sustained prevention, awareness, reporting mechanisms, survivor support, and accountability.
Through the Campus Safety Initiative, we continue to work with tertiary institutions to strengthen the systems, resources, and structures needed to turn policy commitments into safer campus environments.

Our findings from 23 tertiary institutions surveyed in Gombe State reveal that only 16.7% organize training for faculty, staff, and students on sexual harassment.
Without regular training and awareness, members of the campus community may lack the knowledge needed to recognize sexual harassment, understand reporting pathways, prevent harmful behaviours, and respond appropriately when incidents occur.
Through the Campus Safety Initiative, we work with tertiary institutions to strengthen prevention through continuous learning, awareness, institutional capacity, and systems that support safer campuses.

Sexual Harassment Prevention Requires Continuous Education
Only 35.7% of the 14 tertiary institutions surveyed in Enugu reported organizing training for faculty, staff, and students on sexual harassment.
This means a significant number of institutions may still lack regular opportunities to build awareness, strengthen prevention, and ensure that members of their campus communities understand how to recognize, prevent, and respond to sexual harassment.
At Gender Mobile Initiative, we believe safer campuses are built through informed communities, stronger systems, and continuous learning.
