Sobre IBD

Living for a Higher Purpose is a book on finding your purpose and thriving within Public Service in Nigeria. The book details Mrs. Titilola Vivour-Adeniyi’s journey towards ending Sexual and Gender Based Violence (SGBV) in Lagos State, the commercial and human capital of Nigeria.It documents her experience in birthing an idea and transforming it into reality by determination, empathy for survivors and most importantly, political willpower and support from key government stakeholders and like-minded colleagues who believed in a good cause over the years.The book chronicles how to effect change in the society through public service, and also how to fight for relevance and recognition by adding value to government’s quest in fulfilling her part of the social contract with citizens. It details how to run a citizen’s focused government unit, with insights on how to start small but establish a significant positive impact by helping survivors on the journey towards recovery, and holding perpetrators of SGBV accountable.It is a story of tenacity empathy, survival, and renewed hope in Nigeria’s public sector.
