The crisis in North-West Nigeria, caused by armed banditry and kidnapping, has displaced millions, with over 50% of IDPs in Sokoto, Katsina, and Zamfara states. Women and children are particularly vulnerable, facing severe malnutrition and lack of resources. Humanity and Community Development Foundation is crucial in delivering aid, but the abrupt freeze of USAID funding threatens to halt these vital programs, worsening the humanitarian crisis for vulnerable communities.
Crisis in North-West Nigeria, caused by armed banditry and kidnapping, has displaced more than 500,000 people particularly in Sokoto, Katsina, and Zamfara states. Women and children are especially vulnerable, facing severe malnutrition, lack of shelter, and limited access to essential services. The ongoing crisis has been exacerbated by an abrupt freeze in funding from USAID, which supports critical programs aimed at addressing these needs in the region.
This project will address the urgent needs of displaced communities in Sokoto, Katsina, and Zamfara states. It will provide food and nutrition for malnourished children, distribute hygiene kits, offer emergency shelter, and deliver medical care through mobile health clinics. Educational support will help displaced children continue their studies, while improving access to water, sanitation, and healthcare will reduce vulnerabilities and support long-term resilience.
The long-term impact of this project will empower displaced communities to rebuild and thrive. By improving access to nutrition, healthcare, education, and shelter, it will reduce vulnerabilities, particularly among women and children. The project will foster community stability, promote health, and create opportunities for sustainable development. With a focus on education and sanitation, the project will help communities recover from conflict and build a more resilient future.
