Hear Their Voices
Listening to women and children of Nigeria share their stories
The Problem
The ethno-religious conflict, trigged by the injustice and inaction of leaders has weakened the fight against terrorism and violence in Nigeria. Facing a humanitarian crisis in Nigeria, Africa’s most populous and largest economies, the threat of instability could potentially have disastrous consequences.
Attacks by terrorists have resulted in entire communities being displaced and families devastated. The impact of terrorism is most devastating to women and children. Women protect, nurture, and raise the next generation while children are used as sex-slaves and child-soldiers. The voices of these wives, mothers, and sons and daughters impacted by the violence are often unheard.
Call to Action (CTA)
As the Silent Slaughter continues in Nigeria, women and children suffer most as their safety and future are threatened every day. Nigeria needs your help to put an end to this enduring trauma.
