About INTERSOS
INTERSOS is an independent humanitarian organization that assists victims of natural disasters, armed conflicts and exclusion. Its activities are based on solidarity, justice, human dignity, equality of rights and opportunities, respect for diversity and coexistence, paying special attention to the most vulnerable people.

General context of the project
With over a decade of conflict, North-East Nigeria (Borno, Adamawa and Yobe states) and North-West Nigeria have faced devastating humanitarian consequences. According to the Humanitarian Needs and Response Plan 2025, an estimated 7.8 million women, men and children need humanitarian and protection assistance, while 2.3 million people have been forced to flee their homes. Food insecurity and malnutrition are worsened by inflation, poverty and restricted access due to insecurity. Gender-based violence remains a significant protection concern, basic infrastructure has been damaged, and flooding, overcrowding and epidemics such as cholera add further pressure.

INTERSOS supports the coordinated humanitarian response in Nigeria through multisectoral interventions in protection, health and nutrition, WASH, food security and livelihoods, and Camp Coordination and Camp Management, with funding support from OCHA, ECHO, WFP, SV and other donors.

General purpose of the position
