The groundbreaking event, which took place at the UN House in Abuja on Friday, aimed to leverage media’s influential power to promote and protect children’s rights across Nigeria.

According to UNICEF Representative in Nigeria, Cristian Munduate, the partnership will also harness the media’s immense potential as an advocate for the welfare of children.

“Media not only informs public opinion but also influences those in power to enact changes that favour children’s rights. By joining forces, we are setting a course to transform how children’s rights are reported and addressed in the media, ensuring every child’s rights are respected, protected, and fulfilled,” she said.

President of the Nigerian Guild of Editors, Eze Anaba, highlighted the role of media in societal change, saying, “Media has the profound capacity to shape perspectives and effect real change.
