ENVISION is funded by the U.S. Agency for International Development under cooperative agreement No. AID‐OAA‐A‐11‐00048.

The author’s views expressed in this publication do not necessarily reflect the views of the United States Agency for International Development or the United States Government. ENVISION PROJECT OVERVIEW The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID)’s ENVISION project (2011‒2019) is designed to support the vision of the World Health Organization (WHO) and its member states by targeting the control and elimination of seven neglected tropical diseases (NTDs), including lymphatic filariasis (LF), onchocerciasis (OV), schistosomiasis (SCH), three soil‐transmitted helminths (STH; roundworm, whipworm, and hookworm), and trachoma. ENVISION’s goal is to strengthen NTD programming at the global and country levels and support Ministries of Health (MOHs) in achieving their NTD control and elimination goals. At the global level, ENVISION—in close coordination and collaboration with WHO, USAID, and other stakeholders—contributes to several technical areas in support of global NTD control and elimination goals, including the following: drug and diagnostics procurement where global donation programs are unavailable capacity strengthening management and implementation of ENVISION’s Technical Assistance Facility disease mapping NTD policy and technical guideline development NTD monitoring and evaluation (M&E). At the country level, ENVISION provides support to national NTD programs by providing strategic technical and financial assistance for a comprehensive package of NTD interventions, including the following: strategic annual and multi‐year planning advocacy social mobilization and health education capacity strengthening baseline disease mapping preventive chemotherapy (PC) or mass drug administration (MDA) drug and commodity supply management and procurement program supervision M&E, including disease‐specific assessments (DSAs) and surveillance. In Nigeria, ENVISION project activities are implemented by The Carter Center and RTI International.

Primary and secondary data on selected constituents of NSAs including Non Governmental Organizations (NGOs), Privately Owned Companies, Banks, Private Hospitals and Private Schools were analyzed using tables and charts. The results revealed that activities of NSAs significantly enhance the developmental capacity of Cross River State especially in the areas of provision of public services, knowledge and skill acquisition, infrastructural development and employment generation. Besides other recommendations, it was recommended that NSAs and the government should perform complementary roles in enhancing developmental capacity and that the establishment of more NSAs in the rural areas should be encouraged through the provision of special funding and other incentives for NSAs that have their offices in the rural areas.

The findings reported here are unique in the sense that they provide insight into the dynamics of population pressure and its implication on rural development. To carry out the study, a structured interview schedule was designed to collect the required data. The study sample was 750 house-hold heads selected through cluster and simple random sampling techniques. Pearson product moment correlation was adopted to analyze the data generated. Results show that population growth rate in Yakurr is high and display positive linear relationship with rampant communal land conflicts, consequently, creating adverse conditions and rural impoverishment for the people. This study therefore, identified issues in population processes which would be relevant to rural development planners and policy makers as adapted to the stage of Nigeria’s socio-economic development. Policy prescription of the study were then derived with due stress on introducing sustainable conflict resolution approach that should target comprehensive rural development based on empirical findings.

Cross river state (CRS), a tourist state, located in the Niger delta, has one of the highest prevalence rates. There is evidence that poor knowledge and stigmatization are obstacles to achieving universal access to HIV prevention programs. The objective of this study was to determine the Knowledge, Attitude and Practice (KAP) of HIV among adults resident in CRS, Nigeria. Methods: A cross sectional descriptive survey design was employed. A total of 1,620 healthy adults were recruited. KAP towards HIV was assessed using a structured pre-tested questionnaire. Categorical variables were described as frequencies and continuous variables as median and interquartile range. Kruskal-Wallis test was used to determine relationship between variables and median KAP scores. P value < 0.05 was considered significant. All analyses were performed using Stata 12 statistical package.
