Bring Back
Our Girls

Join us in our mission to advocate for the safe return of the Chibok schoolgirls who have been abducted for a decade!

About us

The Bring Back Our Girls (BBOG)  campaign is a global movement that stands in solidarity with the families and communities affected by the abduction of 276 schoolgirls from Chibok, Nigeria, on April 14, 2014. Led by concerned citizens, activists, and supporters worldwide, BBOG tirelessly works to ensure the safe return of these girls to their families and communities. While we are grateful for the return of 185 girls, 91 of them remain missing.

At the heart of the BBOG  campaign is a commitment to justice, human rights, and the protection of children. We demand accountability from the government and international bodies to prioritize the rescue and rehabilitation of the abducted girls and other victims of terrorism. Through advocacy, awareness-raising, and peaceful activism, we aim to keep the dilemma of the Chibok girls in the public eye until they are safely reunited with their loved ones.
