Nigeria Olympic Committee gender empowerment initiatives
Overview
The Nigeria Olympic Committee (NOC) Women’s Commission has launched a series of initiatives focused on female empowerment and gender equality within the sports sector.
In Lagos, the NOC hosted an empowerment event for adolescent girls themed ‘Her Voice, Her Future: Investing in Girls Through Sports and Education.’ The program, held in conjunction with the International Day of the Girl Child, utilized sports and education to promote leadership, digital empowerment, and advocacy against child marriage.
Following this, the NOC organized a seminar in Abuja specifically for members of the Sports Writers Association of Nigeria (SWAN). This event aimed to address gender equality in sports media by training journalists to challenge stereotypes and increase the visibility of female athletes, coaches, and administrators.
