Description: |
Proposed activities should primarily support refugee populations and conflict-victims in Burkina Faso, Mauritania, Niger, Nigeria, and refugee returnee populations in Senegal. Because of PRM's mandate to provide protection, assistance, and sustainable solutions for refugees and victims of conflict, PRM will consider funding only those projects that include target beneficiary base of at least 50 percent refugees in Burkina Faso, Mauritania, and Niger (except Diffa), Nigeria, and refugee returnees in Senegal, as outlined in the country-specific guidelines below. Programs in non-camp areas should, wherever possible, pursue a community-based approach that also benefits host communities. It is strongly encouraged that projects demonstrate increased emphasis on mainstreaming protection, including gender-based violence (GBV) risk mitigation, across proposed sectors and activities. |
