Family planning as shared national infrastructure, not a single ministry's mandate.
What role should sectors outside health play in improving health outcomes? Share your view below.
On August 7, ISMPH joined the inauguration of the High-Level Inter-Ministerial Platform (IMP) on Family Planning, Health, Human Capital, and Sustainable National Development at Transcorp Hilton, Abuja.
Led by the Federal Ministry of Health and Social Welfare with FP2030 Secretariat support, the platform will meet quarterly to track commitments, align resources, and report on progress across the MDAs involved.
At WINSEC 2026, ISMPH's Executive Director, Chief Mrs. Moji Makanjuola, MFR, FNIPR, spoke as Co-Chairman on a message that matters: women bear the heaviest cost of Nigeria's insecurity, yet remain underrepresented in the rooms where peace and security policy gets decided.
Her call to security agencies and policymakers: build institutional partnerships that put women's voices in conflict prevention, peace negotiation, and national security decision-making, not just recovery efforts after the fact.
Credible data and responsible journalism go hand in hand. ISMPH remains committed to working with government, development partners, media organizations, and civil society to advance evidence based health reporting across Nigeria.

The barrier isn't awareness. It's support. Workplace policies. Family pressure. Health worker training. Paid leave that actually covers recovery and bonding time.
