Empowering Communities

At the Free Tribe Network, we promote reproductive wellness, encourage health seeking and reporting behaviours, and conduct programs, projects and research, to improve your reproductive health and family well-being.

Our History

The Free Tribe Network is a non-profit charity founded by Tosin Oluwagbemi-Jacob in 2022, in memory and inspiration of late Mrs. Titilope Oluwagbemi-Jacob (his beloved mother) who passed on due to complications and medical negligence following childbirth.

inspiration

The network aims to address prevailing issues affecting reproductive health and family health, and to provide sustainable solutions to these problems. It was registered with the Corporate Affairs Commission in 2023, and has since set to create a world where individuals have needed knowledge, resource, and support, for optimal reproductive health and family well-being.

Pioneers of the non-profit were graduates students of the Department of Community Medicine, University College Hospital, University of Ibadan; medical professionals, and passionate individuals, who pulled resources to course a plan and structure for the network. To them, FREE is an acronym for Family and Reproductive Health Emancipation and Empowerment.

Within the same year of its registration, the organization took the forefront of Reproductive/family health advocacy with programs like ReproMatters , which have seen collaborations with Critical Healthcare Information Integration Network (CHIIN), Girls First Fund, Precious Little Ladies, and others from Harvard and Stanford University.

In 2023, the network launched its first pilot project in Ibadan; the Stand Against recycled Violence project, and a social service helpline for telephone support, access to information and referral to family health professionals.
