Nigeria Unveils National Data Hub for Gender and Climate Information at COP30

Nigeria has launched the National Data Hub for Gender and Climate Information, a pioneering platform designed to generate, harmonize, and visualize gender-disaggregated climate data. The initiative was unveiled at the COP30 climate conference in Belém, Brazil, marking a major step toward integrating gender equality into the country’s climate policies and actions.

Speaking at the launch, Barrister Tenioyem Majekodunmi, Director-General of the National Council on Climate Change (NCCC), said the platform underscores Nigeria’s commitment to mainstreaming gender across climate governance and advancing inclusive climate finance.

Majekodunmi emphasized that the Data Hub will ensure women’s voices, experiences, and priorities are reflected in every stage of Nigeria’s climate response, helping policymakers and stakeholders make informed, evidence-based decisions.

With this initiative, Nigeria positions itself as a leader in data-driven and gender-just climate action, aiming to build a more resilient and equitable future for all citizens.
