Nigeria’s environment has changed over the past 20 years, from the heat we experience to the growth of our cities. Shouldn’t the evidence guiding environmental policy change too? EUEPiN connects researchers and policymakers to help bridge that gap. #EUEPiN #LEEPS

Equity in environmental policy starts with understanding what each community faces. Floods, refuse and water scarcity call for different responses. EUEPiN links researchers and policymakers so decisions reflect community realities. #EUEPiN #EnvironmentalPolicy #LEEPS

Sustainability should show up in how we work, not just in what we talk about. That is why, at our capacity-building trainings, we have moved away from single-use plastic water bottles and provide reusable flasks instead. Small choices matter. #EUEPiN #LEEPS

Climate change doesn’t only affect the environment. It influences farming, food production, and ultimately the availability and affordability of food. When agricultural systems are disrupted, the impact is felt far beyond the farm. #EUEPIN Photo credit: Flickr

As Nigerian cities continue to grow, green spaces are becoming increasingly important. Trees, parks, and open spaces help improve air quality, reduce heat, support biodiversity, and create healthier environments for communities. #EUEPiN

Sustainability is often associated with large-scale solutions, but everyday actions matter too. The choices people make around waste, energy use, and consumption can collectively contribute to healthier communities and a more sustainable future #EUEPiN

Floods don’t wait and household & community preparedness matters as much as government response. Quick steps: clear gutters, store treated water, use mosquito nets, keep power banks charged & documents on high ground, and seek care for diarrhea/fever. #ClimateResilience #EUEPIN

As climate change intensifies heatwaves, flooding, air pollution and climate-sensitive diseases, stronger governance and sustainable financing are critical to building resilient health systems and protecting communities across Africa. AFIDEP’s research, Integrating Climate and Health in Africa, highlights the urgent need for stronger climate-health governance, dedicated strategies and innovative financing mechanisms to translate commitments into meaningful and lasting action.

Your borehole and your sachet water may share the same contaminated source this rainy season. Floodwater has pushed pollutants into groundwater nationwide. Boil or treat all drinking water, don't assume it's safe. #WaterSafety #ClimateAdaptation #EUEPIN
