WASH:

For the WASH, GOALPrime will improve access of 20,000 conflict affected individuals (30% female, 20% male, 30% girls amp 20% boys) to sustained safe water, clean latrines and sanitation facilities across 9 LGAs in BAY States. 50,000 individuals (60% women/girls amp 40% men/boys) -including 8000 household heads will benefit from hygiene promotion via both door-to-door and/or motorized approach. 15,000 women and girls will be sensitized on menstrual hygiene after which they will receive re-usable sanitary pads. Key messages will include prevention and control of COVID-19, Cholera, Measles, Lassa fevers and messages on PSEA. GOALPrime will also distribute 8000 hygiene kits and PPEs from the WASH common pipeline to 8000 household heads. 

CHILD PROTECTION:

The CP component is aimed at filling the gaps identified in GOALPrime’s ongoing NHF supported Child protection intervention in Kala-Balge, Damboa, Mafa and Monguno LGAs in Borno State. These LGAs do not have Child Friendly Space (CFS) for quality and dignifying MHPSS, Life-skills and counselling (Psychological Evaluation) support to the target beneficiaries of the existing project. Therefore, GOALPrime, through this project will build five (5) Child Friendly Spaces (CFS) in five communities across the four LGAs targeted as follows: Kala-Balge (1), Mafa (1), Damboa (2) and Monguno (1). Also, in response to the socio-economic needs of the children and women of the surrendered ex-combatants at Shokari Camp, Hajj Camp and Bulumkutu Interim Care Centre, GOALPrime will support the Ministry of Women Affairs and Social Development with recreational and creative activities supplies/technical support to provide value-added and timely centre-based socio-economic reintegration support to the 1500 women and children of the surrendered ex-combatants at the aforementioned camps. More also, through technical support from UNICEF-Nigeria, the Northeast Child Protection Sub-sector and the Global Child Protection Area of Responsibility (Global CP AoR) GOALPrime will support the Ministry of Women Affairs and Social Development to develop Institutional Framework and Standard of Operational Procedures (SoP) for reintegrating Children and Women Formerly Associated with the Armed Groups (CAFAAGs amp WAFAAGs). Very importantly, GOALPrime, being a success story for localization will engage a consultant from the Global CP AoR to provide a 3-months virtual and physical mentoring to twenty-five (25) Child Protection National NGOs selected through the sector from BAY States to enhance their institutional and Programmes implementation capacity.
