Sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) is a major issue in Nigeria. Our guest, Chioma Agwuegbo, talks about changes needed in the justice system to better support victims and prevent new acts of violence. She calls for a mindset change in the way women and girls are perceived. She also identifies concrete ways in which international partners can better support women’s rights organisations.

She leads the StateofEmergencyGBV Movement, a coalition igniting citizens to advocate for a rapid and sustainable response to SGBV.
