Project Research_Reinforcing Social Cohesion and Resilience of Conflict Affected Communities Plateau State, located in central Nigeria, is situated along the major religious faultline in the country, dividing the largely Muslim North from the predominantly Christian South. Over the years, this region has experienced a disturbing increase in intercultural and interreligious violence, resulting in the tragic loss of over 10,000 lives since 1992 alone (Human Rights Watch, 2013). Thousands of these casualties have occurred since 2010, highlighting a growing trend of intolerance where individuals are targeted solely based on their ethnic or religious affiliations. The complex interplay of social, religious, and political forces within Nigeria's federal structure exacerbates tensions and divisions. This situation has made the younger generation in Nigeria increasingly susceptible to violent extremism. The lack of effective leadership and alternative narratives further contributes to the region's instability, creating opportunities for further hostilities, particularly in the herders and farmers conflict.
Rahama Rawun PHC The project is aimed at providing a comprehensive set of primary health care services to improve the health status of poor people living in rural Northern Nigeria.

Towards the sustainability of the project and in implementing an annual 20% reduction in grant, the development of sustainability strategy is incorporated in the project.
Emergency Food Assistance and Nutrition Support to Conflict Affected Families in Borno State Despite expanding humanitarian presence in Northeast Nigeria, over 5.2 million people face Crisis or Emergency levels of food insecurity (Food Security Cluster.  In newly accessible parts of Borno, "current Global Acute Malnutrition (GAM) rates range from 20 to 50%, reflecting an `Extreme Critical' situation [and] 87% of people in newly accessible areas are completely dependent on food distribution, which has been inadequate.

This action will support conflict-affected families, including IDPs, returnees and host communities to meet basic, emergency food and nutritional needs. CAFOD in partnership with Catholic Relief Services (CRS) and North East Youth Initiative for Development (NEYIF) (together the "implementing partners" or IPs) will meet the immediate survival needs of vulnerable families in Gubio and Magumeri Local Government Authorities (LGAs) in Borno State, over a 9-month period through integrated, mutually reinforcing food assistance and nutrition interventions.

Water, Sanitation and Hygiene Support to IDPs in 2 LGAs of Plateau State, Nigeria Plateau State is not new to inter-communal violence. Over 38,000 persons were displaced by the latest violence in the State in late June 2018.  With many displaced families taking refuge in Jos as internally displaced persons (IDPs). JDPC Jos, through its Emergency Preparedness and Response Team (EPRT), an inter-agency and inter-faith coalition conducted humanitarian situation assessments. Report of the assessment visits draws attention to the plight of people displaced by the recent violent attacks on several communities. The immediate needs of the victims are food, non-food items, water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) support as a short-term intervention; while psychosocial support, women and youth empowerment, building bridges of trust through peacebuilding and conflict transformation as well as re-settlement of the IDPs was identified as long-term needs. Through this project, the dignity and privacy of men, women, boys and girls will be ensured through the provision of water, sanitation and hygiene materials and messages. Dignity kits including sanitary wears will be provided for women and girls. Gender segregated latrines will be constructed. Most vulnerable categories will be targeted and inequalities in access will be addressed. This project will also lead to prevention of outbreaks of contaminated and airborne diseases such as cholera, and would aim at developing a health conscious IDP camps and host communities.  Complaints and feedback mechanism will be established to enable target communities/camp to air their views about the project. 
This project's outcomes include
1. Improved access to sanitation facilities in emergency affected communities
2. Improved access to safe drinking water in affected communities and camps 
3. Deliver humanitarian WASH supplies and services to meet vulnerable
High-level conflict prevention, mediation, resolution and transformation West Africa has experienced lots of post-election crisis in the past decade which lead to loss of lives, properties and delayed development. The phenomenon has continued in many countries without concrete prevention measures by the government or regional bodies. Also, this trend has led to elections been bitterly contested and perpetrators of violence are equally not brought to Justice. Coupled with the above challenges, West Africa has been more peaceful that other regions in Africa because of nature and nurture. Violent conflicts in West Africa are occasioned by systemic variables conditioned by decades and centuries of interactions regarding external, regional and internal power relations (global and local governance); fault-lines in the architecture of the post-colonial African States; and the vulnerability of the continent to the vagaries of global processes and nature, such as the region’s disadvantaged position in the world market and environmental degradation. The effects of post-election crisis have resulted in displacement of persons, instability of governance structures and generally under-development. 

Free and fair election is one of the cardinal pillars of democratic governance. Elections provide citizens with the opportunity of exercising their constitutionally imputed sovereignty over those responsible for the exercise of executive and legislative powers in the society. 

RECOWA through this project will work towards the establishment of a High-Level Conflict Prevention, Mediation, Resolution and Transformation Committee (HLCPMRT) to address the political crisis within the region before it escalates to major conflict. This project is geared towards identification and selection of competent technocrats and Faith leaders across West Africa Region. The proposed project will serve as the initial entry actions towards building a sustainable, effective, broad-based and erudite HLCPMRT.
CAPACITY BUILDING OF CCFN ON HUMANITARIAN ASSISTANCE The project will support CCFN’s staff capacity development. The Emergency Coordinator will be trained by AMREF, Kenya on disaster preparedness and response. The course will reposition CCFN’s preparedness to deal with emergencies and disasters in Nigeria. The capacity building would enable CCFN to carry out thorough mapping of potential threats and risks within Nigeria especially with the upcoming national elections in the first quarter of 2015. Nigerian is undergoing lots of security challenges and emergencies are imminent in such situations. Also, the general elections in Nigeria are scheduled for 2015. During the previous elections, violence has broken out which led to urban emergencies. The situation in Nigeria leading to the general elections is more precarious since there are two major parties in the country and the competition for position shall be fierce.
Enhancing the Capacity of Humanitarian Organisations in North East Nigeria The Nigeria Joint Response (NJR) has requested CAFOD to support with providing Capacity Strengthening support to NJR two local partners.  The capacity strengthening support is a step towards the Localization Agenda which aims to have the local partners at the forefront of humanitarian response as the first responders.  
CAFOD will facilitate a self-assessment for the NJRs two local partners. This assessment will be conducted over a period of three days for each partner. The assessment will be done in the partners’ field offices within Maiduguri, and it is expected that staff working in HR, Finance, Logistics, Program and the Leadership will fully participate. The capacity self-assessment is the starting point of an organisational change process. The capacity self-assessment process is not a training, an audit or external evaluation. It is therefore critical that the local organisation have a solid understanding and commitment to the self-assessment process and see this as the starting point of a longer capacity strengthening journey. CAFOD will provide support to the two organizations for a period of one month to develop their capacity strengthening plans including prioritization of capacity needs.
Integrated Emergency Recovery Programme in Delta State The heavy rainfall in July, August and early September in 2012, coupled with the release of water from the dams on the River Gongola, River Niger and River Kaduna in Nigeria, and Lagdo dam in Cameroon, has resulted in the worst flooding in more than 40 years. To date the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) has registered 363 reported deaths and 2.1 million internally displaced people (IDPs). Over 7.7 million people and 33 out of the 36 states of the Federation were affected.
Reports by interagency rapid assessment teams showed that almost every community affected by the flood has suffered severe damage to livelihoods, destruction of farmlands, houses, bridges, schools and health facilities, as well as damage to the water supply, irrigation systems, and food storage and processing facilities. 
Population estimates in both Patani and Bomadi (communities affected by the flood) from the last National census stood at 154,000. The lastest flood affected up to 80% of the entire population in this location. The impact of the disaster was exacerbated by: (1) the fact that it affected mainly poor rural communities dependent on subsistence farming for their livelihoods; (2) poor pre-existing conditions of infrastructure for water and electricity supply; and (3) poor standards of buildings and equipment in the education and health sectors, of road networks and of other public/community assets.
Objective of the Project:
To ensure adequate access to integrated emergency response through provision of unconditional cash transfers, Livelihood recovery and WASH interventions to 2500 households (HHs) (17,500 vulnerable persons.) 
The project will facilitate the production of vouchers and ID cards to approve households benefiting from the UCT program in collaboration with near-by banks. Each household will get 48.28 EUR per month (for 4 months). Also, the project will identify and work with Agricultural institutions and agencies such as IITA and Agricultural Development Program (ADP) to facilitate access to farm inputs such as improved cassava cuttings and plantain suckers. The project aims to rehabilitate 6 community boreholes; carry out training on hygiene, hygiene promotion sessions focusing on 3 key hygiene practices including the distribution of water purification and storage kits to 1,400 direct beneficiaries.
Empowering Women and Youth Smallholder Farmers in Groundnut Market System Development in the FCT. There are about 38 million smallholder farmers in Nigeria (20% of the country’s population). 70% of Nigeria smallholder farmers are women, while the rest of the 30% are males. Despite their importance for the domestic economy and due to the sector’s productivity limitations, more than 72 percent of Nigeria’s smallholder farmers live below the poverty line of 3,050 Naira (USD 1.9) a day.
The project aims to empower 50 women and youth smallholder farmers in Abuja, Nigeria, through focused interventions in groundnut seed management. The project shall focus on providing access to improved groundnut seed varieties, offering training on modern and sustainable farming practices, and facilitating the adoption of efficient seed storage and processing techniques. Furthermore, the project seeks to improve and strengthen the capacity of 50 women and youth in groundnut farming, enabling them to increase productivity, improve income, and contribute to food security. With access to quality seeds and training in best practices, women and youth farmers are likely to see improved yields to support the livelihoods of women and youth farmers. Additionally, the project will constitute the formation of a community group of farmers (the target beneficiaries) and market linkages to boost profitable trading opportunities and economic resilience.
BUILDING SUSTAINABLE MECHANISMS FOR EFFECTIVE MANAGEMENT OF CHURCH PARTNERS IN NIGERIA Training and development hold loads of significance such as enhancing the skills of employees and managers, increase organisation productivity and protection of assets. The proposed project is basically focused on the capacity building of CAFOD partners on security and financial management. The project will also streamline the financial management tools, processes and procedures applied by CAFOD partners so as to increase stewardship and financial prudence. CAFOD would endeavour to work with experienced and versatile consultants to deliver high quality sessions to the partners. In Nigeria, capacity building is one of the crucial sectors for the development and actualization of a rubost Faith Based Organisations. Most of the training sessions would not end up in the workshop halls, further consultation, engagement and mentoring of the partners shall continue after the training.
Humanitarian Capacity Strengthening 2021 - JDPC Yola The main purpose of the HCS Transition project is to enable local and national organisations such as CCFN to improve the quality and effectiveness of their humanitarian preparedness and response capacity.

Orange Gem Project – Empowering Women through Production of Orange-fleshed Sweet Potatoes in Plateau Nigeria produces an estimated 3.9m MT of sweet potatoes annually making it the largest producer in West Africa, and among the top five producers globally . Sweet potatoes can be produced in all of Nigeria’s 36 states, however Plateau state in north-central Nigeria accounts for 80% - 90% of Nigeria’s potato production, including sweet potatoes. Although yet to be a staple food in Nigeria, there is a growing demand for orange-flesh sweet potatoes that current supply is not able to meet. 
The Orange Gem project aims to increase the incomes of women producers in Plateau state through the regenerative cultivation and sales of OFS potato vines while also increasing awareness on the benefits and versatility of OFS potatoes. 

The project will adopt an integrated approach in line with the Nigeria country program. Given the focus on women, and the geographic focus in Bokkos and Barkin Ladi LGAs, which are conflict prone regions in Plateau state, the Orange Gem project will also mainstream messages on women participation in peacebuilding and gender justice. As a conflict-prone region, the low nutritious level of women and children is exacerbated underscoring the significance of the Orange Gem project in also promoting better nutrition and increased livelihoods among women.

Assistance to People Affected by Crises through Food and Livelihoods in Michika LGA, Adamawa State N This 4-month project will seek to improve food security and to reduce negative coping strategies in Biang community in Michika LGA, Adamawa State. The project will target 3,420 IDPs and Host community members (approx. 570 households, 6 people in each household).  Outcome 1, the project will disburse cash for food assistance in 2 tranches of N 4,500 each in the second and third month of the project. In total each beneficiary will receive N 9,000. Each tranche has been calculated as the 70% of the Minimum Expenditure Basket (MEB) for food emergency needs per capita/per month. Each household will be given a pre-paid card that will act as an e-Wallet. Tranches for each household will be calculated depending on the number of people in the household, this is N4,500 * N household members = transfer value. The Food Consumption Score (FCS) will be used to capture progress. 

Outcome 2: The project will also aim to improve livelihoods by diversifying income sources of displaced and host community members. To achieve this, the project will train 150 beneficiaries on Income Generating Activities (IGA) who will later be given start-up kits worth N 70,000 each. Baseline and initial project assessments will confirm the specific activities that are more profitable and procure start-up kits accordingly. Training provided by the project will cover petty trading, business management and financial education. Target beneficiaries are vulnerable HHs currently not receiving any food assistance or livelihoods support in this location
Nigeria Disability Inclusion Project-Pilot After the selected partner (CWSI) receives initial induction and training on disability inclusion alongside CAFOD staff in Nigeria from CBM and a local Organisation of Persons with Disability (OPD),  this  project was co-designed which to embed disability inclusion into CWSI’s work focusing on inclusive governance with an emphasis on women.
The anticipated outcome is increased knowledge, technical skills and confidence of CWSI to embed disability inclusion into its project design, implementation and reporting (including data collection and analysis).
