Programme Coordinator at the Nigerian Women's Trust Fund (NWTF)

Posted on Tue 20th Mar, 2018 - hotnigerianjobs.com --- (0 comments)


The Nigerian Women’s Trust Fund (NWTF) was created in 2011 through a coalition of government, the private sector, development partners and civil society organizations to address the gender imbalance in elective and appointive positions and drive strategies to increase the representation of women in governance at all levels.

Research indicates that Nigeria currently falls short of the National Gender Policy benchmark of 35% minimum gender representation and other global and regional benchmarks to which the country is signatory. For instance, with the return to democratic governance in 1999, the number of women elected in Nigeria steadily increased but since 2007 it has remained stagnant between 7-9% representation in the National Assembly. This is less than the average rate of female parliamentarians globally and in Sub-Saharan Africa which is 19% and 20% respectively.
