The theme of the event “Take a Stand: It is TIME” stems from the rise in cases of Sexual and Gender Based Domestic Violence which has increased due to the COVID-19 global pandemic and ensuing lockdown across the world and specifically in Nigeria. We believe our event is taking place at a time when there is an unprecedented increase in reported cases of rape, sexual assault and domestic violence in Nigeria in recent months, some of which have unfortunately resulted in brutal and unsolved murders which lends to the notion that these conversations need to be brought to the fore.
