Gender-Based Violence (also known as GBV), is a pervasive issue that affects individuals, families, and communities worldwide. It's a complex phenomenal that requires a multifaceted approach, involving government, civil society, and individuals.

Despite its prevalence, GBV remains a taboo topic, shrouded in silence and stigma. Today, we're breaking that silence and exploring the realities of GBV in our communities.

So, join us as we discuss GBV prevention, its effects, and available response channels. By highlighting the progress made in addressing GBV and the areas that still need improvement, we aim to emphasize the crucial importance of combating GBV in Nigeria.

In this episode, we will be discussing the experiences, successes, and challenges of GBV. We will also explore how PWAN has helped create a safe living environment and how we have supported Beneficiaries in overcoming their trauma.

To discuss this important topic, I are joined by our colleague, Nana Hauwa Isa, a Program Officer at the Niger state office at PWAN. Nana has extensive experience working with GBV survivors and has been instrumental in developing and implementing programs that address the root causes of GBV.
