Published purpose

The goal of the project is to strengthen the protection of civilians in the border region between Benin, Togo and Burkina Faso, where insecurity is growing because of the expansion of non-state armed groups. The project addresses the critical needs of vulnerable border communities through the following actions: implementing inclusive community protection groups; strengthening forums for dialogue between communities, civil authorities, and defence and security forces (DSF); training DSF to protect civilians; and carrying out strategic advocacy with national and local (communes, departments) authorities.
