Germany, the United Nations Children’s Fund, and the World Food Programme have launched a new humanitarian programme aimed at strengthening the resilience of communities and promoting peace in the North-East states of Borno and Yobe.

The three-year project, named Resilience and Social Cohesion in North-East Nigeria, will benefit more than 50,000 vulnerable people including pregnant women, conflict-affected children, adolescent girls, the elderly and persons living with disability in the Shani Local Government Area of Borno State and Bade Local Government Area of Yobe State.

The Acting Head of Office, UNICEF Maiduguri Field Office, Dr Clement Adams, disclosed the purpose of the project at its launch in Maiduguri on Tuesday. According to Adams, the project which is supported by the German Government will ensure that individuals, communities, and institutions in both states have sustainable access to quality basic services, livelihood opportunities, and improved governance capacity to enhance social cohesion.

He said, “Today is the beginning of a different journey that will ensure that conflict-affected people will benefit from systematic change. The German Government has shown a high commitment to this project and we are hopeful that the gains will be replicated in other locations.”
