AAH Nigeria has been at the forefront to respond to complex crisis and supporting the government of Nigeria in developing and rolling out strategies/policies to eradicate hunger, malnutrition and its underlying causes. AAH Nigeria has been instrumental in helping the government to design nutrition sensitive policies and have successfully modelled interventions that are context specific and easily adoptable at communal level.  
      
    Action Contre la Faim is willing to further expand its current operations by supporting agropastoral communities in the North West of Nigeria through the promotion of gender sensitive initiatives for climate change adaptation. To achieve this, AAH needs a deeper understanding of the traditional roles assigned by local communities to different gender groups (women, youths, ethnic minority) as well as their specific vulnerabilities and challenges over the access and control of natural resources; plus, the local actors and initiatives supporting gender- sensitive adaptation and mitigation of local production systems amongst State actors, CSOs, research institutions and private sector.
