General context of the project
With over a decade of conflict, there have been devastating humanitarian consequences across North-East (Borno, Adamawa, and Yobe (BAY) states) and the North-West Nigeria. According to the Humanitarian Needs Overview 2024, an estimated 7.9 million women, men, and children need some form of humanitarian and protection assistance. Over 2 million people have been forced to flee their homes due to persistent violence and remain internally displaced. Food insecurity and malnutrition are exacerbated by inflation, poverty, and restricted access due to insecurity, which impedes livelihood opportunities. Gender-based violence (GBV) has been a significant protection concern faced by IDP women and girls in the area. Numerous basic infrastructure like hospitals, clinics, water supplies are damaged, posing constraints on essential service provision. Epidemics like cholera arising from flooding and overcrowded setting put extra stress to the already vulnerable communities.
