The Sex Offender Register (SOR) is a critical tool for public safety, designed to help in the fight against sexual and gender-based violence by acting as a tool for prevention, accountability, and survivor supportποΈ
However, despite this vital role, the register remains largely under-utilized and unknown to the general public, leaving a significant gap in community safety and the fight against SGBVπ¨
To address this gap and increase public awareness, the Rule of Law and Anti-Corruption (RoLAC) II Programme is hosting an X-space conversationποΈ(formerly twitter live) to discuss βπππ«ππ§π ππ‘ππ§π’π§π ππ‘π πππππππ’π―π ππ¬π π¨π ππ‘π πππ± πππππ§πππ«π¬ πππ π’π¬πππ« π’π§ ππ§ππ¦ππ«π πππππβ and by extension, Nigeria at large.
Join the conversation with our panel of legal and advocacy experts to learn how we can better utilize this vital tool for community safety π‘οΈ

@aedcelectricity@aedcelectricity whatβs going on in Karu? Itβs been two days without electricity. You guys asked that we pay to replace the transformer, we did that. And immediately after, we are thrown into darkness
We're excited to announce that there are now 45 Sexual Assault Referral Centres (SARCs) in Nigeria, across 22 states and the FCT; which provide critical, emergency medical assistance and psychosocial support for survivors of Sexual and Gender-based Violence.
Please email us at [email protected] if you'd like to know more about the SARC initiative under the Rule of Law and Anti-corruption (RoLAC) Programme. The programme is funded by the European Union and implemented by International IDEA across 8 states in Nigeria and the FCT
In Nigeria, we are advocating for the use of non-custodial measures as a humane and effective alternative to traditional incarceration.
These measures, such as community service, parole, and restorative justice, offer a second chance for offenders to reintegrate into society while addressing the root causes of criminal behavior.
By reducing overcrowding in prisons and focusing on rehabilitation, non-custodial measures contribute to a safer and more just society for all. Together, we can build a system that upholds dignity, encourages reformation, and fosters hope.

Equality does not mean that women and men will become the same but that womenβs and menβs rights, responsibilities and opportunities will not depend on whether they are born male or female.
