"Addressing Nigeria’s Shrinking Civic Space: A Proactive Holistic Response" was an Africa Track workshop offered at the "Ecumenical Advocacy Days 2022: Fierce Urgency Advancing Civil and Human Rights" held on April 26, 2022. 

Workshop Summary: Nigeria prepares for the 2023 general elections and citizens continue to encounter all forms of human rights abuses by security forces and other non-state actors. Despite the impact of the #EndSARS campaign, state agents continue to target human rights defenders and citizens; stifle free expression offline and online; and repress peaceful assemblies thereby causing a traumatized society.
