Empowering Democracy Through Inclusive Volunteering
This project, led by Proactive Gender Initiative (PGI) in collaboration with the Nigeria Civil Society Situation Room and supported by the UK Foreign, Commonwealth, and Development Office (FCDO), aims to strengthen democratic participation through inclusive volunteerism. Under the Volunteering for Democracy Program (VFD), we focus on promoting active citizenship, gender equity, and the involvement of marginalized communities in governance for a more inclusive and representative democracy.
Our Founder
“The trait which propels violence against women also propels sexual abuse of children and corruption, it fuels the abhorrent neglect of widows, insidious surcharge of our youths, and the absolute neglect of law and order. The trait is the psychotic need for expression of strength which is easily triggered by a perception of weakness.”
– Esther Uzoma, founder of Proactive Gender Initiatives (PGI).
