OUR PROJECTS
The Focus of Our Efforts

CHILD PROTECTION
IMPACT focuses on the protection and promotion of the rights of the child in line with the United Nations Convention of the Rights of the Child (CRC) and its domesticated version of the Nigerian Child's Rights ACT (2000). Our interventions include addressing child's rights violations with regards to out-of-school children through our Indigent Children Education Funding, awareness creation on the CRA, and addressing domestic and in-school child abuse amongst others.

CONFLICT MANAGEMENT AND PEACEBUILDING
The rights of Women and Children - IMPACT's primary target group, are completely trampled on in the course of violent conflict. The need to protect these groups who bear the brunt of human rights violations gave rise to IMPACT's conflict management and peacebuilding program. Since 2003, the program has expanded to include capacity building for women's inclusion in peace processes as well as enhancing the capacity of the military and other security agencies for the protection of vulnerable groups in the course of peace keeping and internal security operations.

SEXUAL AND GENDER-BASED VIOLENCE
With the increase in the level of sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) in public spaces and supposedly 'safe havens' (family settings) the need to address associated forms of abuse is high on the agenda for IMPACT. Interventions include: Victim rehabilitation, offender prosecution, and awareness creation on the ills of sexual and gender-based violence amongst others
