Nigeria
Since 2009, there has been conflict between Nigerian government forces and non-state armed groups in the north-east of the country. Families are affected by widespread insecurity, military operations, deteriorating infrastructure, weakened local economies, loss of livelihoods and human rights violations. In Borno State, where Terre des hommes (Tdh) is present, the more than one million displaced people live in host communities or camps. Tdh provides emergency protection and education services to displaced children and children from host communities and improves their access to clean water and sanitation.
