In 2024, the Nigerian Women Trust Fund (NWTF), through its Gender and Election Watch (GEW) initiative, reinforced its commitment to promoting gender equality in Nigeria’s democratic processes. GEW played a critical role in observing the off-cycle elections from a gender perspective, ensuring that women’s voices were not just heard but also acted upon.
Our targeted interventions focused on breaking systemic barriers, empowering women to actively participate in electoral processes, and addressing gender disparities in political representation. By amplifying female voices and shedding light on critical issues affecting women in elections, we took significant strides toward achieving a more inclusive democracy.
As we reflect on these accomplishments, we remain resolute in our mission to create an equitable electoral environment where every woman can participate and thrive.
