This project aims to enhance equitable and inclusive learning outcomes for vulnerable refugees, internally displaced people (IDP), returnees and host community children and youth, particularly girls, living in fragile conflict settings in Cameroon and Niger. The project strengthens refugee- and IDP-led organizations to ensure predictable funding, bolster internal capacities and build networks for advocacy for refugee education, poverty reduction and gender equality. Project activities include: (1) conducting participatory institutional capacity assessments with refugee- and IDP-led organizations; (2) delivering training on strategy, decision-making, financial management and resource mobilization; (3) providing small grants to enable gender-transformative organizational development and technical capacity development; and (4) strengthening networks for collective advocacy from refugee- and IDP-led organizations on access to inclusive and quality education. The project expects to reach nearly 40,000 children from refugee and host communities as direct beneficiaries. The project expects to indirectly reach approximately 80,000 beneficiaries, with a focus on supporting girls and other marginalized groups facing intersectional barriers to education.
