The PPCR focuses on piloting interventions in developing countries for managing climate-induced risks and building climate resilient agriculture. The PPCR is structured into two phases. Phase 1 will support the preparation of a Strategic Program for Climate Resilience (SPCR), which aims to integrate climate resilience into national priority development plans, budgets and investments. Phase 2 will focus on the implementation of the SPCR, specifically on programmatic support, investment in priority sectors, and support to on-the-ground adaptation activities identified during Phase 1. In the context of the Niger SPCR, the following three investment projects have been identified by the government, multilateral development banks, and other stakeholders: Project for the Mobilization and Development of Water Resources (PROMOVARE), led by the African Development Bank. Climate Information Development and Forecasting Project (PDIPC), led by African Development Bank. Community Action Project for Climate Resilience (PACRC), led by the World Bank. IFC is responsible for sub-components of the above projects that focus on engaging the private sector in the PPCR and catalyzing investment in climate change adaptation activities. For Niger, increased climate resilience and improved food security are closely interlinked. Unless adaptation measures are put in place, climate change is likely to increase the risk of famine and social collapse. Towards building climate resilience in Niger’s agricultural sector through mobilizing private sector, investigations in three areas through engaging consultant was taken up in the below mentioned areas. 1. Increasing the use of improved irrigation systems and introducing climate resilient seeds to farmers; 2. Creating a climate information platform for agricultural producers and other stakeholders such as insurance providers; and 3. Developing insurance products suitable for SMEs active in the agricultural sector with opportunity to extend insurance benefits to small-scale farmers and livestock holders. The present study pertains to point 3 above and focuses on the development of weather index based insurance for crops and livestock in Niger. Such insurance will increase the resilience of the agricultural sector (including small-scale farmers and livestock holders) to climate change impacts. This study analyzes the feasibility of weather index based insurance in Niger and provides recommendations for the development of sustainable market interventions for the agricultural sector in Niger. The study also involves conducting a needs assessment and the feasibility of introducing the required crop insurance products in the country.

  • NIGER - DIFFA : Les Incidents Liés Au Groupe Boko Haram* (1 Janvier Au 31 Août 2018)
    NIGER - DIFFA : Les incidents liés au groupe Boko Haram* (1 janvier au 31 août 2018) De janvier à août 2018, la situation sécuritaire dans la région de Diffa a été marquée par une augmentation des exactions des éléments du groupe armé non étatique Boko Haram (BH) et une baisse des victimes civiles liées à ces incidents comparativement à la même période l’année dernière (2017). Les mois de janvier et août 2018 ont enregistré le plus d’incidents (47/94 soit 50%).

Des attaques terroristes majeures ont été rapportées dans les localités bordant les berges de la Komadougou et les localités proches des îles du Lac Tchad. Le 4 juin, 3 kamikazes ont fait exploser leurs charges dans un quartier de la ville de Diffa tuant 6 civils. Trois (3) bases militaires ont été attaquées par les éléments du groupe BH respectivement les 17 janvier, 23 janvier et 1 juillet dans les localités de Toumour, Chétima Wangou (Chetimari) et Bilabrin (N’Guigmi) faisant des victimes dans les deux camps. Ces incidents et d’autres de nature criminelle (enlèvements, extorsions et menaces) sont à l’origine de mouvements de populations entre les différents sites et/ou villages.

  • In Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger Situation Overview : Niger – Tillabéri and Tahoua Regions | March 2020
    Humanitarian situation monitoring (HSM) in Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger Situation overview : Niger – Tillabéri and Tahoua regions | March 2020 Context Since the outbreak of violence in Mali in 2012, the border area between Niger, Mali and Burkina Faso has been characterized by a climate of insecurity due to the presence of armed groups, crime and rising tensions between communities1. The security situation in Niger has deteriorated sharply since 2018 and has caused the internal displacement of 159,028 people in the Tillabéri and Tahoua regions as of March 20202. In addition, the provision of humanitarian assistance is subject to multiple constraints resulting in limitations to access affected populations due to security, geographic and climatic factors, as well as to measures taken as part of the state of emergency covering parts of the Tillabéri and Tahoua regions1. Limited humanitarian access is one of the factors at the origin of important information gaps about the scope, nature and severity of needs. To fill these information gaps, REACH has been implementing a monitoring of the humanitarian situation, financed by the U.S. Office of Foreign Disaster Assistance (OFDA) since January 2020, following a pilot phase in November 20193. This situation overview presents the main results for data collected in March 2020 in the Tillabéri and Tahoua regions and analyzes the development of main indicators in the Tillabéri region between November 2019 and March 20204. Methodology This assessment adopts a so-called “Area of knowledge” methodology. The aim of this methodology is to collect, analyze and share up-to-date information regarding multi-sectoral humanitarian needs in the region, including in areas that are difficult to access.

  • Food Insecurity Situations, the National Society (NS) Has Better Equipped Branches, Has Trained More Volunteers and More Technical Staff Are Recruited at Headquarters
    DREF operation n° Niger: Food MDRNE005 GLIDE n° OT-2010000028- NER Insecurity 23 February, 2010 The International Federation’s Disaster Relief Emergency Fund (DREF) is a source of un-earmarked money created by the Federation in 1985 to ensure that immediate financial support is available for Red Cross and Red Crescent response to emergencies. The DREF is a vital part of the International Federation’s disaster response system and increases the ability of national societies to respond to disasters. CHF 229,046 (USD 212,828 or EUR 156,142) has been allocated from the Federation’s Disaster Relief Emergency Fund (DREF) to support the Red Cross Society of Niger in delivering immediate assistance to some 300,000 beneficiaries. Unearmarked funds to repay DREF are encouraged. Summary: This DREF aims to mitigate the food shortage due to bad harvests last year affecting about half of the population (7.7 million) of Niger. The DREF is issued to respond to a request from the Red Cross Society of Niger (RCSN) to support sectors of food security and nutrition for about Red Cross supported Graham bank in Zinder. 300,000 people with various activities including cash for work, water harvesting and environmental protection actions, seeds and stock distribution, and support to nutrition centres.
