ACTION AGAINST HUNGER
MISSION NIGERIA
CONSULTANCY FOR ENRICH THIRD PARTY MONITORING (TPM)
Action Against Hunger is an international humanitarian organization that has been leading the global fight against hunger and malnutrition among the most vulnerable populations in northern Nigeria since 2010. Through Integrated and multi-sectoral program approach, ACF deliver lifesaving assistance to address the water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH), nutrition and health, food security and livelihood, and social protection needs of internally displaced persons, refugees, migrants, and host communities.
ACF’s global strategic plan encourages partnership, mobilization and coordination which is also in line with US Department of State’s Localization strategy, focusing on fostering and improving the capacity of local partnerships for sustainable humanitarian intervention. This commitment also in-line with ACF remote management strategy and is crucial given the ongoing security challenges, including attacks, abductions, killings, and the establishment of Illegal Vehicle Check Points (IVCPs) by Non-State Armed Groups (NSAGs) harnessing the implementation of project activities in selected Local Government Areas (LGAs) within Borno state, which continue to hinder humanitarian response and INGOs’ access to certain LGAs including Gubio, Kada, Magumeri and Mobbar LGAs..
The main objective of this third-party monitoring initiative is to ensure routine, robust, unbiased, and comprehensive monitoring of the ENRICH program activities, particularly in Gubio, Kaga and Magumeri LGAs of Borno state implemented by BOWDI, YIPDI, SCI/EYN and Ministry of Health (MOH) where security challenge and limited access often hinder the direct oversight of project implemented by ACF. The third-party monitoring will provide a landscape for the consortium to ensure routine monitoring of project implementations and to also provide real time updates of project activities while ensuring activities are implemented with highest quality by immediately addressing the gaps identified during implementation. The consortium aims to obtain an independent perspective on the ENRICH project performance and monitoring through the provision of real-time and valuable insights and feedback that can enhance the effectiveness, efficiency, and quality of the intervention carried out by consortium partners implementing the project in hard to reach locations.
Geographical scope coverage: Gubio, Magumeri and Kaga LGAs Borno State, North-East, Nigeria.
