Schools become spaces for protection, healing, and reintegration.

Under a UNICEF Nigeria–funded project, NEYIF completed quarterly awareness and sensitization sessions across secondary schools in Damaturu, Gujba, Gulani, Tarmuwa, and Bade LGAs.

Students and school communities learned how to identify and prevent the six grave violations against children, understand reporting pathways, support returning women and children, and strengthen community reconciliation.
