We are therefore reopening the call for applications and extending the opportunity to all eligible partners, with a new deadline of 18 April 2025- Including previous applicants and recipients of the earlier grant.

Our stabilization initiatives are helping conflict-affected communities in Northeast Nigeria restore normalcy by providing vital services and facilities, through the Adamawa State Ministry of Reconstruction, Rehabilitation, Reintegration & Humanitarian Services (MRRR&HS) in collaboration with the Regional Stabilization Facility for the Lake Chad Basin – Nigeria Window.

In August, 35 women from the Gulak Community in Adamawa State underwent a 7-day Village Savings and Loans Association (VSLA) training facilitated by the UNDP and MRRR&HS under the same stabilization initiative. This training empowered them with key skills in savings management, loan administration, and financial empowerment.

The participants developed action plans to boost economic stability in their community, driving financial inclusion and fostering sustainable development.

Community Resilience Project in Partnership with Adamawa State Government funded by UNDP

The Atiku Institute for Development (AID), in collaboration with the Adamawa State Government, is proud to announce the commencement of the Community Resilience for Social, Political, and Economic Reintegration project funded by the UNDP.

This initiative aims to enhance reconciliation and reintegration efforts for internally displaced persons (IDPs), returnees, and host communities in Gulak, Madagali, Adamawa State.

🎯 Key Objectives:

3. Empower women, returnees, and vulnerable groups by facilitating their active involvement in local economic activities.

This project underscores our commitment to fostering sustainable reintegration and community resilience.
