This award supports a first-ever behavior change summit in Nigeria in 2023 that brings together relevant stakeholders, including civil society organizations, faith-based organizations, donor partners, researchers, and policymakers. The summit provides a collaborative platform to showcase the work of the On Nigeria behavior change cohort, create partnerships, and generate ideas to sustain anti-corruption efforts beyond the end of the program in 2024.

With this X-Grant, the Akin Fadeyi Foundation team is conducting limited user research on the app to improve user experience, security, and privacy. It is also upgrading the app to collect audio and video reports of corruption. The award will improve the app's functionality and security so that it may be adapted and adopted by other government agencies, universities, and interested parties.
