Digital Empowerment & Health Rights Accountability or Knowledge (DEHRAK)

Digital empowerment and health rights education protecting adolescent girls and strengthening school safeguarding systems.

Problem Solved

Adolescent girls in Kaduna State face intersecting risks: gender-based violence, early marriage, poor access to sexual and reproductive health information, mental health stigma, and digital exclusion. Schools often lack safeguarding systems, and girls frequently do not know their rights or safe reporting pathways. DEHRAK addresses these risks by integrating digital empowerment, health and rights education, and school-based safeguarding systems, ensuring that girls are not only informed but protected and supported.

Our Mission

To protect and empower adolescent girls in Kaduna State through digital skills, health and rights education, and school-based safeguarding systems that promote safety, dignity, and informed decision-making.

Our Vision

To create a future where every young person regardless of background, gender, or ability has equitable access to education, opportunity, and the resources needed to become leaders and change-makers in their communities.
