NORWEGIAN REFUGEE COUNCIL (NRC)
INVITATION TO TENDER FOR MULTISECTORAL AREA-BASED RESPONSE FOR VULNERABLE PEOPLE AFFECTED BY THE PROTRACTED CONFLICT IN ADAMAWA AND BORNO STATES
1. Background Information and Context
The proposed action will improve the living conditions of 43,614 displacement and conflict individuals in Borno and Adamawa states across Maiduguri, Monguno, Gwoza/Pulka, Madagali through a multi-sectoral area based response. The affected populations in need of assistance will receive through Food Security, WASH, Shelter, Education General Protection and ICLA (Information Counselling and Legal Assistance) services building on NRC’s response under the 2022 HIP and ongoing interventions within the same targeted localities to maximize the impact. Aligned to the HIP priorities and NRC’s view that the current emergency is protection centred all activities will be focused on reducing protection risks like exploitation, physical risks of movement, and transactional sex, among other risks and negative coping mechanisms caused by the lack of access to basic services. The action will equally focus on the displacement and conflict affected children provide and maintain access to safe, inclusive and quality Education to out of school children. A comprehensive approach will be adopted to address identified barriers to education which include structural and
economic barriers that hindered children access to education. The action will also build on the protection sector efforts towards the centrality of protection to ensure that NRC and other partners are taking a protection-focused lens in the Northeast response. Aligned to the HIP2023 strategic priority, NRC will seek to address the growing and unexpected needs caused by floods and communal clashes through the use of the “Crisis Modifier”/”Disaster Preparedness” to ensure a timely response with Borno and Adamawa. Lastly, to contribute to better humanitarian access and protection, NRC through in-country, regional and global advocacy teams, will build on advocacy efforts to bring attention to the crisis in Nigeria.
The documentation of stories using videos and other multimedia means will serve as an opportunity to inform our target audience (stakeholders, partners, donors) of the successes and challenges encountered during the period of this intervention. It would also serve for record-keeping processes and will be a part of the content that NRC would display should the opportunities arise.
2. Purpose and Intended Use
