As part of our efforts to strengthen community journalism and human rights advocacy through the #SCOJA project, which is supported by @NLinNigeria, we paid a visit to the Department of Development and Strategic Communication at the University of Abuja. The engagement created an important platform for conversations about equipping the next generation of media professionals with the knowledge, ethical grounding, and practical skills needed to drive impactful storytelling and public-interest journalism. We look forward to beginning the work!

In April, we introduced a radical anti-burnout policy—giving our reporters time to rest and recover. At HumAngle, we believe truth-telling shouldn’t come at the cost of those who tell it. What can you do to help? Support a newsroom that cares for its journalists. support.humanglemedia.com/

Journalists are trained not to pay sources because it could risk distortion and affect credibility, but what happens when the people you are interviewing live in destitute conditions? @A_Salkida spoke to journalists in Nigeria about their experience with this ethical conundrum. He also spoke to journalism teachers. humanglemedia.com/ethics-und…

Between February and April 2026, our #SCOJA fellows in Kano State, with support from @NLinNigeria, led climate advocacy engagements in Gezawa LGA, raising awareness on desert encroachment and the growing risks of climate change within affected communities. They also held strategic engagements with the Kano State Ministry of Environment and Climate Change and the Arewa Women Initiative for Climate Change Advocacy & Environmental Sustainability. So far, they have strengthened collaboration on local climate action and community-driven solutions.
