Who we are
RedAid Nigeria (RAN) is dedicated to empowering individuals affected by leprosy, TB, Buruli Ulcer, and other Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs). We operate with a gender-sensitive approach, aiming to promote gender equity and equality both within the organization and in all development projects. Recognizing that gender equality is key to sustainable development, RAN prioritizes gender issues and supports women in developing their skills, self-confidence, and self-reliance. We are committed to eliminating all forms of discrimination against women and adhere to a code of conduct that prohibits sexual exploitation and abuse of any person, especially children.
