Livelihoods Programme
Project Status

The International Refugee Committee (IRC) Nigeria, with support from Education Above All and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, are implementing an integrated programme to enable out of school children (OOSC), adolescents and youth in Adamawa State, northeast Nigeria, to develop climate adaptation-related vocational, literacy, numeracy, and life skills knowledge to strengthen their ability to be resilient to shocks and stresses. The project integrates education, health, environmental health (WASH), and economic recovery and development (ERD) sector interventions in the Farang Farang community within the Fufore Local Government Area (LGA). The project will also provide access to clean water, which is fundamentally lacking in this community. It will help adolescents and youth, along with their families, better manage and improve their hygiene levels and access to sanitary wear.
