Young Men’s Network Against SGBV is delighted to announce the successful conclusion of our “Pledge for Protection” initiative!

This milestone was made possible through strategic collaboration with the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Cross River State Command, and the Department for Gender Mainstreaming, Cross River State.

Implemented within the framework of the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence, the activity underscores the importance of institutional accountability and collective action in safeguarding communities—both offline and in digital spaces.

Anchored in this year’s global theme, “UNiTE to End Digital Violence against All Women and Girls,” the pledges undertaken by NSCDC officers and our partners reflect a strong, multi-sectoral commitment to advancing protection mechanisms and ensuring safer environments for all citizens.

We extend our sincere appreciation to the leadership and dedicated teams of the NSCDC and the Cross River State Department of Gender Mainstreaming for their partnership and solidarity in driving this impactful initiative forward.

The Young Men's Network Against Sexual and Gender-Based Violence, in collaboration with the Government of Cross River State, Department of Gender Mainstreaming, successfully hosted the International Day of the Boy Child on Monday, 19th May, 2025 at the Government Secondary School, Akansoko, Akpabuyo Local Government Area. The event aimed to engage young secondary school boys in meaningful discussions on critical issues affecting their personal and professional development, fostering positive behavioral change, and raising awareness on gender-based violence.
