GADA’S work targets…

Policy-makers, women and men in public life, civil society actors, categories of marginalized persons (that often include women) and those poorly represented in national decision-making in Nigeria. These categories of persons and the issues they represent are often subsumed by ethnic, religious and political bickering which diminishes their importance.

With the rather unsatisfactory operational environment for their participation, these interests within civil society need to band together if they are to influence policy-making. GADA works with such allies to build our national and national groups in order to exert influence at various levels of decision-making. Alliance building is an ongoing process and an essential part of GADA’s mission to foster credible and committed partners that can expand its outreach and strengthen its networking capacities. GADA’s mandate, its history of national mobilization and cross-national sensitization has put it in a unique position to access a pool of existing resources to enhance it impact.
