In collaboration with Partners West Africa Nigeria (PWAN), the Foundation hosted a Public Policy Forum, Promoting the Effective Participation of Women in Governance on December 11, 2023.

Supported by the Embassy of Switzerland, Nigeria, the forum brought together influential stakeholders from national, subnational, traditional, and religious spheres to discuss the challenges hindering the participation of women in politics. The event provided a platform for constructive dialogue, policy formulation, and actionable strategies to foster greater inclusion and empowerment of women in Nigerian politics.
