Purpose
March 2020 - A decade of conflict between government forces and Islamist insurgents in northeastern Nigeria has given rise to one of the most severe humanitarian crises in the world, characterized by mass displacement and grave human rights abuses, including abductions, killings, and sexual violence. In 2020, assessments indicate that 7.7 million people are expected to require humanitarian assistance, including emergency food rations, treatment for life-threatening severe acute malnutrition and other healthcare services, and protection for vulnerable women and girls at grave risk of sexual and gender-based violence. With GAC’s support, Save the Children Canada is providing nutrition and protection assistance to an estimated 152,000 conflict-affected people in Nigeria’s Borno state. Project activities include: (1) providing technical and materiel support to local health facilities to improve delivery of nutrition treatment services; (2) providing cash or other inputs to vulnerable households to combat malnutrition; and (3) implementing activities to strengthen referral and response systems for sexual and gender-based violence.
