To improve the protective environment of the children in project locations TdH will coordinate with Mine Action Group (MAG) to provide Mine Risk Education to the children attending PSS sessions and the volunteers from the community.  The main objective of Mine Risk Education is to reduce the risk of death or injury from mines/IED/ERW, through raising awareness and changing behavior.
Protection Monitoring and Multi-Sectoral Response in the selected Local Government Areas (LGAs) in Borno State. The rainy season has augmented to challenges in the delivery of humanitarian assistance in Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) sites. thereby further widening the unmet protection gaps.  The rains have caused flooding of many sites resulting in IDP shelters being damaged or destroyed, thus overcrowding in higher ground and loss of personal dignity.  Further, IDPs have also suffered loss of basic items including food.  The effect has been that IDPs in trying to cope with their new situations are more exposed to protection risks including physical safety risks due to stagnant water, violence, abuse, family separation, exploitation, sexual harassment and trauma. 
 
This project will address protection gaps worsened in North East Nigeria following the rainy season. Key response activities proposed include 

	Protection Monitoring including referrals – Identification of cases that require further follow up and/or referral to specialized services for effective response by protection staff. 
	Capacity building of protection stakeholders for proper identification, effective protection mainstreaming, and response to protection challenges including referrals. 
	Vulnerability screening – will be implemented through effective profiling of displaced population which will enable targeted response for persons with specific needs who are in most need, urgent or immediate protection response.
	Enhance Community based protection – through effective use of community protection framework including Protection Action Group (PAG) members to identify and respond to protection concerns.  Construction of three (03) Protection Desks (PDs) to provide a platform to effectively coordinate and mainstream protection interventions, provide referral point of all protections issues as well as initial point in mapping of protection intervention from the camp/community level.   
	Provision of Non-Food Items (NFIs) to reduce risk and address needs as a protection intervention to most vulnerable individuals of concern.  
	Improved physical safety through the installation of solar lighting system.

The project will be implemented in Borno State  Dikwa, Damboa, and Gwoza-Pulka LGAs) and Adamawa State (Mubi LGAs). The specific locations will include IDP camps and host communities in each of the listed locations. Beneficiary households and individuals will be identified through vulnerability screening and protection monitoring among the IDPs in camps/or communities of concern, as well as through referrals from humanitarian partners in the areas of operations/service provisions. 

In total 45,000 IDPs (5,000 households) will be targeted. This project will be implemented with the support of UNHCR’s partner GISCOR in Borno State, and a national partner who will be selected for Adamawa State. The partners will be supported by the community-based protection structures already established in the camps/or communities
Explosive Ordnance Risk Education, Non-technical survey and Victim needs identification for conflict affected population in Pulka and Dikwa, threatened by the presence of improvised landmines and explosive remnants of war. Northeast Nigeria is facing a landmine crisis as a result of the ongoing conflict between non-state armed groups and the Nigerian Army. From 1 January 2016 to 31 August 2019, 806 people were injured and killed by landmines and other explosive remnants of war.  Casualty figures averaged 25 people per month during this period, over a third of whom were civilians. Nigeria is among the countries with the highest casualty rates in the world. 
The majority of the incidents are improvised items, such as locally manufactured landmines and other explosive devices deployed by organized armed groups. However, contamination from conventional weapons after clashes between government forces and non-state armed groups, including mortars, rockets and grenades, also poses a risk to communities. 
The impact of landmines and other explosive remnants of war drives communities from their home and restricts the use of land for productive use. It exacerbates a significant humanitarian crisis – with over 7 million people in humanitarian need in northeast Nigeria – by denying access to assistance at the same time as it restricts humanitarian access to vulnerable communities. 
This project aims to address this landmine emergency by tailoring an integrated approach to humanitarian mine action, by delivering life-saving Risk Education to IDPs, refugees and host communities (adults and children), identifying EO victims in Dikwa and Pulka and collecting information on contamination in northeast Nigeria through Non-Technical Survey (NTS) and Remote Contamination Baseline Assessments (RCBA). MAG will also explore partnerships with an INGO and national NGO to expand the impact, reach and sustainability of the project.
Providing Quality Integrated Primary and Reproductive Healthcare services to conflict affected IDPs in Monguno,  Bama, Jere and Maiduguri LGA, Borno State By building and consolidating on the gains achieved by the IRC under the NHF/OCHA 90 day funding in response to the influx of Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) into MMC (Maiduguri) and Monguno local government areas (LGA) in Borno state, the IRC seeks to strengthen its primary and reproductive healthcare services for internally displaced persons and host community members through direct treatment at IRC facilities. Through this OCHA-supported action, the IRC will further strengthen the provision of health care services by providing primary and reproductive care at existing static health facilities at the Stadium IDP Camp in Maiduguri and in Fulatari Camp at Monguno. 

The IRC will continue, under this action to run its integrated comprehensive, Reproductive health clinic targeting adolescent girls, women of child bearing age, and pregnant and lactating women (PLW). The IRC will provide clinical management of rape for all identified cases of gender based violence, (GBV) ante-natal services, post-natal services, and syndromic management of sexually transmitted infection (STIs) services.

Through the IRC’s established referral pathway and mechanism, which includes an established ambulance service, with payment of hospital cost for all referred IDPs and host community members and the existing referral linkage to the University of Maiduguri Teaching hospital, which has now expanded to include the States Specialist Hospital, Umaru Shehu Hospital and Mamman Shuwa Memorial Hospital. The IRC will further plug the referral gap under this action.

The IRC, in the case of an epidemic will adapt its programming to effectively respond by leveraging on the existing community structures and propositioned medicines and products.
Provision of Non Food Items for IDPs (New Arrivals) in Camps and Host Communities in Maiduguri Metropolis, Borno State Following the recent and alarming surge in insecurity in northern and eastern Borno State and parts of Northeast, many persons have been displaced and push to find refuge in Maiduguri Metropolitan Council (MMC). Many are since arrival in MMC and other part of Borno have been staying without any form of NFIs.
This project aims to meet the immediate life-saving humanitarian needs of an estimated newly
displaced people from other part of Borno into MMC, most of whom are living in deplorable
Conditions and urgently require humanitarian assistance especially NFIs. 
The proposed project is targeting new arrivals who have fled inaccessible areas and are in dire need of aid.
This project will be focusing only on the provision of improved NFI kits to the most vulnerable in MMC and the activities will include, community social mobilization, need assessment, beneficiary registration, procurement, warehousing, transportation, distribution of NFIs and post distribution monitoring every two weeks after distribution as the distribution will be done on a rolling-on-going bases according the the needs and sector directives.
In implementing this project GREENCODE will work closely with the Sector and the nationally approved guidelines and standard as uploaded in the Humanitarian Response Info will be used. 
Given the NFI needs for the new arrivals in the MMC and considering the important of providing lifesaving assistance, the project will procure, transport and distribute improved NFIs kits to the most vulnerable 700 households such as female and child headed HHs among IDPs (new arrival) in MMC based on needs of the gaps jointly identified/agreed by GREENCODE and Shelter/NFIs sector in Borno state. 
The distribution will be on a rolling/on-going basis as GREENCODE team will continue to assess, verify, and deliver assistance according to identified needs to affected populations wherever they are in MMC, and most likely in some in locations with gaps as directed and agreed with the Shelter/NFIs sector. 
In all stages of the project protection issues such as SGBV and child protection will be closely monitored and referred to appropriate partners for counselled and refer, also during distribution of NFIs.
GREENCODE will work with IOM, SEMA, UNHRC and Protection sector to ensure gender and age awareness including in the dis-aggregation of data and the targeting of female¬ headed households, incorporating gender dynamics and the specific needs of different groups into needs assessments and response recommendations. Further, GREENCODE will pay special attention recognising the different needs of women and children as well as men and boys of different ages, we will ensure targeting criteria are taking into consideration specific vulnerabilities and needs. Also, in procuring NFIs and ensure that kit contents procured for this project are gender sensitive as well as easy to use by women in performing daily tasks.
