Proposed Proforma for Weekly Emrgency Situation NIGER SITUATION REPORT Reporting period: 2-15 February 2007 Date of report: 16 February 2007 1) Significant events • The National Food Security Mechanism was soon have more than 70,000 mt of cereals in stock. • A mid-term evaluation of the PRRO is ongoing. • A nomadic rebel group attacked the town of Iferouane on 8 February killing three Nigerien soldiers. 2) Security Niger is under security phase 0, with the exception of Agadez and Diffa regions which are under phase 1. A nomadic rebel group attacked the remote north-eastern town of Iferouane (Agadez region) on 8 February, kidnapping two Nigerien soldiers and killing three more. Numerous nomadic groups in Niger's desert north staged an uprising in the 1990s and most groups accepted peace deals in 1995 but insecurity remains rife, with frequent acts of banditry, carjacking and kidnapping by former rebels. 3) Food security and nutritional situation Food prices are beginning to rise as household stocks decrease with the onset of the lean season. The Government’s market monitoring system (SIMA) reports that in January 2007, the prices of millet, sorghum and niébé (cow peas) all increased. Results of the Government/WFP/FAO joint household food security vulnerability assessment (November 2006) are finalized and are awaiting Government approval for circulation. At the National Food Mechanism CRC meeting of 6 February 2007, it was announced that, with food arrivals and confirmed contributions, the NFSM physical stocks will soon total over 70,000 mt- close to the 80,000 mt target level. Thanks to good donor support, this stock level will allow the mechanism an adequate response level. 4) Implementation WFP has two current projects in Niger: Protracted Relief and Recovery Operation (PRRO) 10509.0 and the Country Programme 10285.0. Activities under the PRRO are currently focused on supplementary feeding activities for moderately malnourished children. Food for work activities will begin in March and support to cereal banks in April. WFP is also working with nutritional partners to begin support to malnourished pregnant and lactating women next month. The Country Programme includes three activities: rural development, support to basic education and support to the fight against HIV/AIDS and tuberculosis. Deliveries to schools for the second trimester of the 2006-2007 school year are complete. Training for school feeding canteen management staff and school directors will kick off on 20 February in Tillaberi. A two-day training will be held in each region. 1 A National Review of progress reached towards the Sahel Alliance will be undertaken and the terms of reference are being finalized. Support to people living with HIV/AIDS was piloted with partners Solthis and the French Red Cross in Niamey in 2006 and will now be expanded to other areas of the country. Partner organizations provide anti-retroviral drugs and medical treatment while WFP provides a family ration to the patients. 5) Monitoring and Evaluation A mid-term evaluation of the PRRO is ongoing. The mission conducted field visits to Tillaberi and Tahoua regions and met with Government counterparts, UN/NGO partners and donors. The final mission report is expected for 5 March 2007. A monitoring mission of rural development activities took place from 29 January to 8 February 2007 to four regions: Maradi, Diffa, Dosso and Zinder. Regarding food for work activities, the number of beneficiaries who presented at themselves at the work sites was significantly higher than planned, which is an indication of the food insecurity in the villages targeted. WFP will work with partners to strengthen this aspect of the activities. It was also found that food for work activities are preferred to cash for work activities in areas that are distant from market places. 6) Resourcing and Pipeline Resourcing Status of WFP Niger Projects Project Duration Budget (USD) Total Received Shortfall PRRO 10509.0 1 Apr 2006- 30 49.2 million 41.3 million USD 7.9 million USD Sept 2007 (83%) (16%) CP 10285.0 1 Jan 2004- 31 38.7 million 26.7 million USD 12 million USD Dec 2007 (69%) (31%) Due to the ongoing cotton campaign in Benin, the number of trucks available is limited to transport WFP commodities to Niger from the port of Cotonou. As result, 3,600 tons of sorghum and 170 tons of oil are being temporarily stored at the port in Cotonou.

UNICEF and WFP representatives as well as the Resident Coordinators from Mali, Mauritania, Niger, Burkina Faso and Chad were present. A mission from the Dutch National Postcode Lottery will come to Niger from 5-9 March 2007. They will be accompanied by Mr. John Powell, WFP’s Deputy Executive Director for Fundraising and Communications. The purpose of the mission is to visit school feeding activities supported by the Dutch Lottery’s contributions as well as other WFP activities. 3 RESOURCING UPDATE 14-Feb-07 Recipient Country: Niger Project No.: 10509 Single Country PRRO Strengthening the Means of Subsistence of Vulnerable Populations and Project Title: Targeted Assistance for Malnourished Children Project Duration From: 1-Apr-06 to: 30-Sep-07 Operational Requirements U.S. Dollars 49,193,649 Resource Level (in US$) Donor % of total AUSTRIA 362,757 0.74 CANADA 2,192,983 4.46 DENMARK 1,010,101 2.05 EGYPT 69,808 0.14 EUR.

Our argument is that circumstantial alliances and percolation of grievances provoked by local micro-political dynamics and long-standing disenfranchisement of some sections of the Tuareg youth permitted the movement to take off as a credible rebel group. Ultimately, we want to verify if existing analytical tools made available by the theoretical literature on non-state armed groups are adequate to make sense of the MNJ’s organisational trajectory, particularly considering Jeremy Weinstein’s seminal book “Inside Rebellion” (Weinstein, 2006).

    2008 Human Rights Report: Niger Page 1 of 21 2008 Human Rights Report: Niger BUREAU OF DEMOCRACY, HUMAN RIGHTS, AND LABOR 2008 Country Reports on Human Rights Practices February 25, 2009 Niger is a multiparty republic that restored its multiparty system in 1999 following coups in 1996 and 1999; it has a population estimated at 14.8 million. In 2004 voters elected Mamadou Tandja to a second five-year presidential term in an election that international observers deemed generally free and fair. Four parties joined the ruling coalition of the National Movement for the Development of Society (MNSD) and the Democratic and Social Convention (CDS) to win a majority of national assembly seats. In February 2007 the Tuareg rebel group Niger Movement for Justice (MNJ) launched a series of attacks against military and strategic installations in the north. The frequency and intensity of attacks diminished at the end of 2008, but the government did not lift the state of alert declared in August 2007. While civilian authorities generally maintained effective control of the security forces, there were instances in which elements of the security forces acted independently of government authority. Government respect for human rights did not improve from the previous year. Human rights abuses included extrajudicial killings and use of excessive force by security forces; poor jail and prison conditions; arbitrary arrest and detention; prolonged pretrial detention; executive interference in the judiciary; excessive use of force and other abuses in internal conflict; restrictions on press freedom; forcible dispersal of demonstrators; restrictions on freedom of movement; official corruption; societal discrimination and violence against women; female genital mutilation (FGM); trafficking in persons; the practice of slavery by some groups; and child labor.
