## About

```text
At Plan International Nigeria, I supported programs and campaigns on sexual and reproductive health, livelihoods, and peacebuilding. I also conducted safeguarding risk assessments before program activities and contributed to data collection, reporting, and partner coordination.

With Planned Parenthood Federation of Nigeria, I coordinated the Youth Action Movement in the FCT and organized trainings and campaigns on sexual and reproductive health. Across my advocacy work, I’ve supported youth engagement in adolescent health, HIV prevention, malaria, and climate justice.
