Implementation of Bandebereho (Ma’Aurata Abun Koyi/Uto Ezi NA Ulo) Parenting Intervention Program in Nigeria

MOMENTUM Country and Global Leadership targeted newly married couples in Nigeria to transform harmful gender norms, using fatherhood as an entry point to build healthier couple relations and promote men’s caregiving. In 2022, the project adapted the Bandebereho (“role model” in Kinyarwanda) program, first piloted in Rwanda, to engage Nigerian couples to enhance communication and positive parenting. This brief summarizes the introduction of the Bandebereho intervention in Sokoto and Ebonyi states, as well as the results, lesson learned, and recommendations for future implementation.
