GEESI Development and Humanitarian Initiative

GEESI Development and Humanitarian initiative carried out a GBV Door-to-Door Sensitization on the 20th of Jan 2025 at Adagom 1, 3 and Ukende Refugee settlements in Ogoja, Cross River Nigeria. The objective of the GBV (Gender-Based Violence) door-to-door sensitization program was to raise awareness about the prevalence and impact of GBV, talk to the communities about support and resources to survivors, and promote a culture of zero tolerance for GBV in our community. In our messages, we emphasized that GBV is a violation of human rights and is never justified. We also informed survivors that they are not alone and that support services are available. Lastly we encouraged community members to take an active role in preventing GBV and supporting survivors.
