Education as a Vaccine (EVA) was founded in 2000 to equip young people with the information and skills to tackle the AIDS epidemic when formative research revealed that a majority of young people lacked the basic life skills necessary to prevent the HIV infection. With the Leading from the South grant, the organisation will advocate for measures to ensure the safety and security of women in tertiary institutions and advocate for the review and implementation of sexual harassment policies, protocols and programmes at the University of Ibadan and the University of Abuja.
