DEADLINE: 30TH APRIL, 2021
SEARCH FOR COMMON GROUND
CALL FOR APPLICATION- SMALL GRANTS INITIATIVES TO SUPPORT SMALL LOCAL/COMMUNITY BASED RESPONSES TO COVID-19

Search for Common Ground (Search) proposes to support a rapid-response 3-month action that seeks to support an effective, conflict-sensitive response to the COVID-19 pandemic in a way that prevents further deterioration of social cohesion in Nigeria through small initiatives.

The outbreak of the novel Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) has revealed the fragility of Nigeria’s health and governance system. The global oil crisis and the price fluctuation resulted in a severe negative effect on the Nigerian economy which brought additional complexities to the context.

About the Project 
Search for Common Ground (Search) in partnership with the European Union for the past seven months have been implementing a 15 Months rapid-response “Working together against Corona” campaign that supports an effective, conflict-sensitive response to the COVID-19 pandemic in a way that prevents further deterioration of social cohesion in fragile contexts in Africa, namely in Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda and Nigeria.

This action has a two-fold purpose: on the one hand, it aims to render the response to the pandemic in the targeted countries more effective by ensuring citizen acceptance of the response through access to reliable information on the other, it will mitigate the negative impact of the crisis on social cohesion and prevent it from exacerbating existing conflict dynamics Covid19 prevention.
