TAF AFRICA ORGANIZES A THREE-DAY STAFF WORKSHOP ON EFFECTIVE DELIVERY AND TRACKING OF KPIs IN 2ND QUARTER 2025

At the beginning of Q2 2025 (April) TAF Africa recently organized a three-day staff workshop aimed at strengthening Effective Delivery and Tracking of Key Performance Indicators.

The workshop provided an opportunity for strategic reflection, leadership development, and program planning to drive impactful change in 2025.

 

A key highlight of the retreat was the KPI Planning Development session, which focused on developing even better and more precise thinking about organizational KPIs. The departments and teams developed detailed SWOT analyses that drove the feedback on building KPIs and updating the KPIs developed at the January 2025 Retreat. These sessions allowed for a comprehensive assessment of past efforts and helped align strategies for greater efficiency and effectiveness.

 

With a focus on improving mental health for greater productivity, the retreat also included a deep dive with a Mental Health Workshop – which discussed strategic ways for the team to manage personal and individual stress and ensured that the TAF Africa team is increasingly able to effectively manage the workload on the road to delivering on TAF Africa’s mission to our shared constituents. This session was facilitated by Doris Epelle, Counsellor & Lead Consultant, Dunech Counselling & Consulting Services. Her expertise and guidance in personal mental health helped the team to understand the value of managing the work and enriched discussions.

 

A key moment of the retreat was the presentations by our guest speakers – Engr Dr Chuks Okpaku, Azure Business Group Lead for Microsoft Africa, Emmanuel Odah, Social Media Expert, and Mr John Etim, a Business Development. Dr Chuks spoke to the value of modern technology and Microsoft technology in getting things done, Emmanuel Odah took the team to task on using Visibility to drive TAF’s storytelling and how that can drive and enrich the work of telling crucial stories. Mr John Etim spoke on the opportunities for Resource Mobilization in TAF and how to leverage these opportunities in view of reaching newer heights for the organization and more specifically for the PWD community.

 

As the retreat concluded, the team took on the feedback from the facilitator consultants, upgraded current plans, exchanged innovative ideas, and realigned their collective vision for the year ahead.

TAF Africa Calls For Renewed Commitment To Disability-Inclusive Societies On The 2025 International Day Of Persons With Disabilities (IDPD)

TAF AFRICA PRESS STATEMENT 3 December 2025 | Abuja, Nigeria TAF Africa joins the global community today to commemorate the 2025 International Day of Persons with Disabilities (IDPD) under the theme “Fostering disability-inclusive societies for advancing social progress”. This year’s observance offers an important opportunity to reflect on how far we have come, and how far we must still go to ensure that persons with disabilities are not only included but empowered as equal contributors to national development. The 2025 theme is especially significant as it builds on the momentum of the Second World Summit for Social Development held in Doha from 4 – 6 November 2025, where world leaders reaffirmed their shared commitment to building a just, inclusive, peaceful, and equitable world. At the Summit, disability inclusion featured prominently as a fundamental pillar of social justice and sustainable development. For Nigeria, these global commitments must translate into accelerated action at home. As an organisation dedicated to strengthening the full participation of persons with disabilities in governance, democracy, and development, TAF Africa acknowledges the progress made. Yet, we remain deeply concerned that millions of Nigerians with disabilities still face systemic exclusion in education, healthcare, employment, public infrastructure, political participation, and digital access. In line with today’s global message, we call for: 1. Full enforcement of the Discrimination Against Persons with Disabilities (Prohibition) Act, 2018:  Seven years after its passage, full compliance, especially in accessible infrastructure, public services, and protection from discrimination, remains critically low. Governments at all levels must prioritise implementation, budget allocation, and monitoring. 2. Institutionalisation of disability inclusion across all sectors: From elections to economic planning, disability inclusion cannot remain an afterthought. MDAs, the private sector, and development agencies must embed disability responsive frameworks into policies, programs, and service delivery. 3. Strengthening political participation of persons with disabilities Democracy is incomplete without the voices of all citizens. We urge the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), political parties, security agencies, and civil society to full implement disability-inclusive electoral processes in future elections 4. Investment in accessible technology, innovation, and social protection Equitable digital access, assistive devices, inclusive social protection systems, and economic empowerment initiatives are essential for social progress and long-term national development. 5. Partnership-driven solutions Achieving an inclusive society requires strong collaboration among government, civil society, organisations of Persons with Disabilities (OPDs), private sector actors, the media, and international partners. We reaffirm our commitment to working with all stakeholders to drive lasting change. Today, TAF Africa celebrates the resilience, innovation, and leaders of persons with disabilities across Nigeria and the African continent. Their contributions to governance, entrepreneurship, education, the creative economy, technology, and community development continue to inspire our collective pursuit of justice and equality. As the world renews its commitment to social development following the Doha Summit, Nigeria must seize this moment to reaffirm that disability inclusion is a national priority, not optional, not symbolic, but essential. Let today be a reminder that a truly inclusive society is one where every individual, regardless of disability status, can live with dignity, exercise their rights fully, and contribute meaningfully to national progress.
