The Delegation of the European Union to Nigeria and ECOWAS is now accepting entries from Nigerians for its 2021 Sexual And Gender-Based Violence (SGBV) Short Video Competition. The deadline for the submission of entries is January 29, 2021.

Sexual And Gender Based Violence (SGBV) Short Video Competition 2021

A short video competition on sexual and gender-based violence as a means of eliminating its prevalence in society is being organised by the Delegation of the European Union to Nigeria and ECOWAS.

Entrants are asked to express what they understand by sexual and gender-based violence and ways to eliminate it in society. Unleash your creativity in a three-minute video to illustrate the positive changes you would like to see. Express it with moving pictures using a true-life story or fiction.

The objective of the competition is to stimulate the awareness of Nigerians on issues of gender-based violence, ensuring that the voices of young people are heard and taken into consideration when shaping and implementing programmes and policies in Nigeria.
