Welcome to the first episode of our three-part series, Tackling Gender Issues in Nigeria. Gender inequality remains a significant challenge, affecting various aspects of life, from education and employment to healthcare and leadership. While progress has been made, there is still much work to be done.

In this episode, we had an insightful conversation with incredible changemakers working at the grassroots level to bridge the gender gap:

🎙 Speakers:🔹 Dorkong Rimdan – Founder, FemPawa & Radio Host at Cool FM Abuja🔹 Ayobamikale Borisade – Executive Director, The Girls Pride Initiatives for Sustainable Development🔹 Bidemi Adedire – Founder, The Smile Outreach

Together, we explored the question: How have you experienced gender equality or inequality in your field? Our guests shared personal experiences from the media and nonprofit sectors, highlighting the barriers they’ve faced and how they are challenging societal norms.
