This March, BellaNaija Style is proud to present the 6th edition of BNS Women’s Month, a campaign dedicated to the holistic well-being of Nigerian women and girls. From important conversations about women’s health to panel discussions, live sessions with experts and, of course, the highlight – our elegant high tea gathering, where inspiring women come together to connect, celebrate, and share experiences – this year’s BNS women month’s promises to not only educate but to also inspire us to take actions to improve our health, community, and society.
