lcatel-Lucent, Jumia, Celebrate International Women’s Day With Project Alert

RECOGNITION of the work of Project Alert on Violence Against Women, a non-governmental organisation came to fore on Wednesday when two corporate organisations, Alcatel-Lucent Nig. Ltd. and Jumia Nigeria celebrated with them this year’s International Women’s Day at two different events in Lagos. In the first event, a team of 25 women members of staff of Alcatel-Lucent, a global telecommunication equipment maker were at the Project Alert office to identify with and encourage them on their work on stemming violence against women. Founder and Executive Director of Project Alert, Dr. (Mrs.) Josephine Effah-Chukwuma, took them down memory lane on the experiences in the environment in her growing up days that shaped her current passion of standing up to violations of the rights of the female gender.
