STAKEHOLDERS ENGAGEMENT MEETING

Devastated is the situation of flood-affected victims of Yusufari L.G.A of Yobe State, Nigeria.

Therefore, there is a need for COWACDI to render Humanitarian Support to the affected populations of Yusufari due to the emergency. Stakeholder Consultation was done in line with the implementation plan to identify and categorize all relevant stakeholders that will support the project implementation. In identifying the stakeholders, their views and influence on the project were considered to ensure the successful implementation of the project.

Thanks to @Usaidnigeria, @IOMNigeria, and #RRF (Rapid Response Fund) for their passion for serving humanity and giving COWACDI an “implementing partner” the privilege to participate in their passion to mitigate the impact of the flood.

COOKING DEMOSTRATION

Did You Know…?

Beans are an excellent source of vegetable protein and minerals such as iron, magnesium, and zinc.

They are rich in folic acid, an element associated with the reduction of such birth defects as Spina Bifida, and they also protect against heart disease. Beans are also a good source of non-lactic calcium.

NFI PROFILING

Our Team carrying out #Profiling in Kusheri Camp of Jere L.G.A Borno State, Nigeria. For our #NFI self-funding project. With high priority to #PLWD’s and the Most #Vulnerable Persons.

In as much as there are high numbers of vulnerable persons in Kusheri camp, we try as much as possible to reach out to a considerable number of the vulnerables in Kusheri camp.

We call on each and everyone to support in any way possible in other to reach out to more “If not All” the vulnerable people of Kusheri camp, and contribute to their social Wellbeing.

NFI Distributions

At COWACDI, our approach to NFI distributions funded by NHF emphasizes the need for involving affected populations before, during and after distributions. The objective of the distributions is to ensure that the immediate personal needs of affected populations are covered and that a minimum level of dignity is ensured. We also ensure that these kits are culturally appropriate, and cater for the needs of all segments of the affected population in a non-discriminatory manner.
