International Day of the Girl Child

Project Safe to Tell: school outreach in Ondo and Osun States

To mark the International Day of the Girl Child, the JAVIMS team visited schools across Ondo and Osun States to talk with students about safety, speaking up and being valued. Under the banner of Project Safe to Tell, “Building a Future Where Everyone Feels Safe and Valued”, we ran classroom sessions, shared copies of the Safe to Tell book with school leaders, and celebrated girls with posters and signs reading “I am proud to be a girl”.
