For the past many months, TWCF has worked with our friend Kayode Bolaji of Peace Building Development Foundation and with Director General Mike Omeri of the National Orientation Agency, and Director David Dogo of National Orientation Agency, on setting up and running the National Conference on Human Security. This conference was to speak to leaders in various agencies, departments, government branches, etc on the importance of human security in Nigeria. The event surrounded the questions of what exactly is human security, does Nigeria have a human security policy, does it need revision in the face of current challenges, and can we bring to the forefront the need for peace building and conflict resolution as it is needed. It was a very informative conference that just scratched the surface of challenges at hand. But it was exciting and hopeful as we are working towards a more long term plan surrounding these questions and challenges. It was an amazing opportunity to connect with many leaders in the country (both past and present), as well as reconnect with some of the network we already have in place. We are excited for how God will use this opportunity.
