Story

As members of Leadership Initiatives' [LI] International Internship Program, Graeme, Amelia, Gillian, and Natalie have been working with LI to help create & publicize human rights campaigns for various rights issues in Bauchi State, Nigeria. To transform lives, the team & LI are working to connect with local nonprofits in Bauchi to research, document, and advocate for various human rights issues within the area.

Impact

We will create a community that can identify and fight human rights abuses, empower individuals to spark sustainable development, and removes the stigma of victims to create a vehicle for advocacy, adding to the growth of Democracy and freedom within their country.

Challenge

Human rights violations are very common in the developing world, but not many are aware they ever happen. Leadership Initiatives has worked with the Bauchi community for over fifteen years and continues to grow our relationship with other activist organizations that are local to the area. A lack of funding for research, campaigns, and basic training has left many of these organizations unable to assist victims of various rights abuses and work to create proper prevention programs.
