Background
The Child Development Grant Programme (CDGP) is a flagship nutrition-sensitive social protection programme funded by the United Kingdom’s Agency for International Development (UKAID), operating in Jigawa and Zamfara states of Nigeria. The CDGP provides a monthly unconditional cash transfer of 4, 000NGN to pregnant women from the time their pregnancy is confirmed until their children are two years old, targeting the critical first 1,000 days of a child’s life. The cash transfer is accompanied by nutrition education and Behavioural Change Communication (BCC) to the beneficiaries. The programme started in April 2013 and will run to July 2019.
The CDGP aims to reduce malnutrition and stunting in children. CDGP also seeks to boost federal and/or state political and institutional commitment to adopt the programme or implement some key learnings from the programme to ensure improved nutrition, food security and poverty reduction for women and children. This will ensure sustainability of social protection for women and children when UKAID funding ends in 2019.
The CDGP is implemented by Save the Children International and Action Against Hunger.
