The Centre's Director, Dr. Ambassador Safiya Nuhu, disclosed that the Centre would be marking its 10th anniversary in 2025 and has intensified efforts in training programs, research, collaborations, and impactful projects. A notable partnership is the "Knowledge for Change" initiative, a collaborative effort with universities in Canada and Uganda aimed at addressing gender-based issues.

The Centre has also appointed Deputy Directors to enhance its operations, and the Vice-Chancellor, Professor Sagir Adamu Abbas, has assured the team of the University's continued support in tackling societal issues.
