Funding Overview and Partnership In 2020, UNICEF is appealing for US$ 62.2M to provide life-saving services to women and children affected by several crisis in Niger, in coordination with other humanitarian actors, within the framework of the Humanitarian Response Plan 2020, and in partnerships with government and NGOs. The funds carry-over from the previous year amounts to 6.5M and funding received so far amounts to about 12M, leaving a funding gap of 71% at the end of March 2020. UNICEF expresses its sincere gratitude to all public and private donors for the contributions received.

Situation Overview & Humanitarian Needs Humanitarian Needs Overview: According to the 2020 Humanitarian Needs Overview (HNO) published in January 2020, 2.9 million people in Niger need humanitarian assistance, including 1.6 M children. The needs analysis shows the persistence of five major crises affecting the country: food insecurity, malnutrition, epidemics, floods and population movements due to conflict or migration. The 2020 Humanitarian Response Plan was launched in February 2020: 1,8 million people are targeted for a budget of 399,9 M USD. In partnership with government and NGOs, UNICEF continues to provide multisectoral and coordinated assistance to affected population, both through an emergency approach to assist the most vulnerable populations immediately after a shock, and through longer terms interventions to guarantee durable solutions. Tillaberi and Tahoua: Access remains very limited due to continuous insecurity, to a cumbersome civil-military coordination process; field missions are frequently cancelled due to incidents and/or armed group activities. Lack of access is slowing down program implementation. Diffa: The presence of several active armed groups and the multiplication of their actions, especially against civilians, suggest that the situation in the area will continue to deteriorate in the next months.

Summary Analysis of Programme Response Nutrition UNICEF, in close collaboration with the Ministry of Health and respective regional and health districts, supports the treatment of SAM children nationwide. Lake Chad Basin crisis At the end of March (week 14), 4,021 under-five children suffering from SAM were admitted for treatment in Diffa region, including 180 children with medical complications. Compared to the same period of last year, a decrease of 37% in inpatient and an increase of 4% in outpatient facilities were observed. According to the “cadre harmonisé” analysis of, in Diffa region, 702,538 people are estimated to be in a food security crisis situation or worse (phases 3-5) during the current period (March to May 2020) and this number will be 122,075 people during the projected period (June-August 2020). Mali Border crisis (Tahoua and Tillaberi regions) As end of March (week 14), 18,880 under-five children suffering from SAM were admitted for treatment in Tahoua and Tillaberi regions. Compared to the same period of last year, a decrease of 8 % and 6% in inpatient facilities and in outpatient facilities were observed, respectively. In Tillaberi region, we observed a slight increase of 2% in outpatient facilities. Municipalities and districts with limited access are analysed separately during the “cadre Harmonisé” analysis. In Tahoua and Tillaberi regions, 97,410 people are estimated to be in a food security crisis situation or worse (phases 3-5) during the current period (March to May 2020) but 903,167 people will be in this situation during the projected period (June-August 2020). National crisis By the end of March (week 14), 70,563 under-five children suffering from SAM were admitted for treatment, including 6,359 cases with medical complications. This is representing 17.8% of the annual target. Compared to the same period of last year, a decrease of 18% in inpatient facilities and a slight increase of 2% in outpatient facilities were registered. The “cadre Harmonisé” analysis indicate that 1,6 million people are estimated to be in a food security crisis situation or worse (phases 3-5) during the current period (March to May 2020) and this number will be 2,01 million people during the projected period (June-August 2020). This situation doesn’t take in account the COVID-19 context because the spread of the disease in the country started after the analysis.

Lake Chad Basin crisis The epidemiological situation for this month of March 2020 was characterized by the notification of suspected cases of measles: 6 cases at week 11 and 3 at week 12 all coming from the district of Ngourti. An awareness session for One Health and the Inter-Agency Coordination Committee (CCIA) members on the COVID- 19 took place in early March just after their installation. Thus, all the health districts of the region also carried out the briefing of the authorities of their respective departments on the COVID-19. A supervision of Integrated Community Cases Management (iCCM) activities in the Health Districts supported by UNICEF in the Diffa region took place during the month of March, carried out by the focal point of the DRSP, and helped to identify shortcomings in the work of the relays and the drugs supply chain to community relays. A problem- solving plan has been established to fix this and must be carefully followed up with the support of UNICEF. The district of implemented decentralized monitoring in the second week of March with UNICEF Support. A mission from the central level and Global UNICEF visited Diffa as part of the drafting of the BMZ concept note (Building Resilience in Diffa). A two-days working sessions took place with WFP and the government party (multi- sector) to draft the BMZ concept note. A team from the UNICEF Italy office also visited Diffa to determine the ways and means to initiate the Participatory Community Approach. This approach consists in empowering communities to take charge of their own problems.

WASH Lake Chad Basin crisis In March, UNICEF and WASH Cluster actors provided 10,053 people with sustainable access to water through the construction/rehabilitation or reinforcement of the production capacity of 30 water supply piped systems and autonomous water stations, with the setup and training of users’ associations; 1,952 people were provided with access to emergency safe water; 8,162 people gained access to sanitation infrastructure and 15,159 people were reached with hygiene promotion activities and hygiene kits. Otherwise, 749 malnourished children received WASH in nutrition kits at the community level. Mali border crisis (Tahoua and Tillaberi regions) A total of 7,952 people benefited from WASH kits and household water treatment products (PUR or Aquatab) for a period of 3 months through the RRM response in Tillaberi region. Other crises In Maradi region, 47,041 people were reached by Sanitation and hygiene promotion activities through Community Led Total Sanitation (CLTS) in emergency in 23 communities with UNICEF support and 1,500 gained access to sustainable water supply provided by WASH Cluster members.

Education Lake Chad Basin crisis In March 2020, before the closure of schools due to the COVID-19 pandemic, in Diffa region, the NGO CONCERN with the support of UNICEF through NORAD funds enrolled 18 new children in school, including 12 girls. As for the NGO COOPI, with the support of UNICEF, 94 have been registered, including 48 girls. In addition, in this region, the NGO COOPI has set up 31 school governments, 31 school hygiene clubs and provided 202 girls with dignity kits. All these actions are aimed at facilitating access, but also the participation of children in the management of schools. On the cluster side, the NGO COOPI has integrated 1,680 new children, including 919 girls, into schools in Diffa region with funding from Agenzia Italiana per la Cooperazione allo Svillupo (AICS).

In this same region, with the NGO CONCERN, thanks to teacher training in APS carried out on NORAD funds, 140 students (including 70 girls) are in classrooms where teachers have received this training in psycho-social support (PSS). On the cluster side, the NGO COOPI has provided 3,978 students (including 2,176 girls) with textbooks thanks to AICS funding. Mali Border Crisis (Tahoua and Tillaberi regions) Access: In Tillaberi region, following the destruction of school infrastructure during the floods in the districts of Sinder and Tillaberi, the Regional Directorate of Primary Education (DREP) with the support of UNICEF has built 23 temporary spaces apprenticeship (TLS) in 23 schools. This provided access to education to 758 out-of-school children, including 384 girls. In the same region, the NGO CONCERN, with the support of UNICEF, from funds allocated by Education Cannot Wait (ECW) enrolled 57 children out of school, including 25 girls, and in Tahoua enrolled 56 children, including 25 girls. In Tillaberi region, the NGO COOPI with the support of UNICEF enrolled 19,014 children, including 8,718 girls, in primary schools (16,581), kindergartens (1,391) and alternatives education centers (1,042). In addition, in the same region, the NGO carried out an awareness campaign on enrolling and keeping children, especially girls and children with disabilities, in school. The NGO trained 120 members of decentralized management committees and associations of educational mothers (including 60 women) on the culture of peace and non-violence in the school environment.

Child Protection Lake Chad Basin crisis In March 2020 in the region of Diffa, 557 children (263 girls) benefitted from psychosocial support by the sub cluster members; four new unaccompanied children were identified and transferred to social services while three children formerly associated to the non-state armed group were released by the antiterrorist unit in Diffa. There is limited access to various axis due to security situation, ongoing military operations and restriction of movement due to COVID-19. There is a lack of funding in Diffa for emergency support such as psychosocial support and reinsertion of children formerly associated to the non-state armed group, a lack of accessibility to areas to offer social services and sensitization against child abuse and exploitation due to restraint mobility. Humanitarian actors need to review their activities in relation with the COVID-19 outbreak’s consequences. Mali Border Crisis (Tahoua and Tillaberi regions) The situation continues to be unstable for the protection of children in the region, following constant threats against the population and movement affecting children. UNICEF partners ended their activities by the end of February 2020. CERF Underfunded funds will allow to target the same areas and continue to address the children’ needs There remains a strong need to have a CP strategy to reach children in sensitive locations for psychosocial support due to security situation and now COVID-19 pandemic. National Level In Maradi, UNICEF’s partner completed a sensitization campaign on birth registration and child rights in 25 villages, targeting 6,162 people (including 3223 women). Meanwhile 40 child protection community-based mechanisms sensitized 7,319 people in their villages on child marriage, child neglect and abuse, hygiene and rights to receive medical care, etc. 450 vulnerable children were identified by UNHCR and referred to UNICEF’s partner ADKOUL for specific care. In , during the month of March, 42 unaccompanied children from Niger (including 14 girls), aged 6 to 17 years old, who were expelled from Algeria, received alternative care in the transit center in Agadez, under the management of the Regional Directorate in charge of Child Protection (DRPE) and technically and financially supported by UNICEF.

Most of the children are coming from the region (). They all received psychosocial support, food and clothing support while waiting for the reunification process with the support of the Justice system.

Communication for Development (C4D). To support the COVID-19 response in Niger at central level, UNICEF is actively co-leading the national communication efforts in developing plans, messages, communication products, but also conceptualizing Community Engagement Framework. 3 axes are mainly supported and must be reinforced in the coming weeks: Mass communication, Social Media and Community Engagement. Community radios, traditional leaders, loudspeakers in the mosques, billboards, youth brigades, social networks – different actors and channels were used to raise awareness of the crisis related to COVID-19 epidemics. An innovative web platform and mobile application was developed (http://www.muryarmatassa.org/public) to facilitate the work of young brigades on the ground. They will be used by young people to get information, share concerns and report alerts of COVID-19. Meanwhile UNICEF is continuing its work on decreasing child marriage, GBV, increasing immunisation and access to essential services. To address these issues, C4D is developing an integrated participatory community approach model, built on internal genuine community capacities and strength. The model will be piloted in the regions of Maradi, Zinder, Tahoua and Diffa.

Non-Food Items (NFI) The Rapid Response Mechanism (RRM) provides a multisectoral response to population affected by a shock (armed conflict, floods, epidemics) through NFI, Shelter, Food Security, Protection, WASH, Health and Nutrition emergency response. UNICEF, in close collaboration with the Ministry of the Humanitarian Action and RRM partners, is the technical coordinator of the Rapid Response Mechanism, and partially in charge of the NFI supply for the mechanism. Lake Chad Basin crisis As of 31st of March, UNICEF, through RRM implementing partners, supported 6,513 people affected by conflicts through the distribution of 1,169 UNICEF NFI kits. This represents 62% of the annual target, mainly resulting from the resurgence of kidnappings by elements of non-state armed groups followed by ransom demands. In addition, RRM supported 5,713 affected persons through the distribution of 1,050 emergency Shelters. Mali Border crisis (Tahoua and Tillaberi regions) As of 31st of March, the RRM supported 17,683 people affected by conflicts through the distribution of 2,581 UNICEF NFI kits. This represents 31.6% of the annual target. Humanitarian access continues to be a major constraint, due to the security context and government restrictions mainly in the Tillaberi and Tahoua regions. In addition, RRM supported 6,301 affected persons through the distribution of 1,126 emergency Shelters. About 8,600 newly displaced people, representing more than 1,300 households, are still deprived of emergency assistance in Tillaberi since the imposition of armed escorts on the humanitarian community that is limiting the humanitarian access National crisis RRM is being deployed in the Maradi region, in order to respond to people affected by conflict and forced displacements, and as of 31st of March UNICEF provided 849 NFIs kits to 6,080 affected people. In addition, RRM supported 7,375 affected people through the distribution of 953 emergency Shelters. As part of the emergency response, the RRM Niger was identified as the first opportunity and entry point for humanitarian cash transfer in Niger. The validation of an agreement in principle was made with the RRM consortium (UNICEF, ACTED, ACF, DRC, IRC) for the start of the cash pilot. For the moment, the activities are evolving in terms of the design of the pilot and the conception of the tools that will accompany the different stages of implementation.

RapidPro In March, 129 reports were received out Real time reporting on alerts and the functionalities of of the 218 schools monitored, in the services Sector education sector. 42 out of 51 health Received real time Target real time Registered Addressed centers sent complete reports on report report Alerts Alerts nutrition performance. About WASH, 51 Nutrition 42 51 0 0 reports were received out of 249 WASH 51 249 2 0 expected water points reports. Also, 2 Education 129 218 0 0 alerts were received. A field mission was realized in Tillaberi and Diffa regions to implement and follow up the RapidPro activities and reinforce the capacity of governmental partners. UNICEF in collaboration with the Government institutions involved, is taking actions through Japanese funding to improve the number of reports received and their use.

Humanitarian Leadership, Coordination and Strategy UNICEF responds to chronic and acute crises in Niger. UNICEF strengthens national health and nutrition systems to deliver emergencies services, including severe acute malnutrition (SAM) prevention and treatment, measles and polio vaccination and free health care for children under 5. UNICEF prioritizes access to quality school services for children affected by crises and building resilience in schools. Conflict-affected children receive comprehensive child protection services, and cholera prevention and readiness and access to safe water remain as priorities. UNICEF leads the Education and WASH Clusters, the Child Protection Sub-Cluster and the Nutrition Technical Working Group in close collaboration with government counterparts. UNICEF technically leads the Rapid Response Mechanism (RRM), implemented jointly by ACF, ACTED, DRC, IRC, OCHA, WFP and the government, and is responsible for the NFIs procurement. In March 2020, as part of its participation in the activities of the Multisectoral Cash Working Group (CWG), UNICEF actively contributed to the drafting of guidance notes for humanitarian and state actors on Cash Transfer in the context of COVID-19. To strengthen the inter-institutional partnership on cash transfer, UNICEF participated in the monthly meeting (March) of the regional Cash Working Group under the coordination of the Cash Learning Partnership (CaLP). As part of the Common Cash System pilot initiative with WFP, UNHCR and OCHA and in relation to the latter's 2020 action plan, UNICEF is working with the other 3 agencies to release the guidance tool on the Minimum Need Basket (MNB) and the Minimum Expenditure Basket (MEB) which, once validated, will serve as a basic tool for guiding actors in providing assistance through cash transfers. At the beginning of March, the Nutrition sector group/Nutrition cluster organized a working group meeting on the management of acute malnutrition. During this meeting, the partners discussed the coverage, effectiveness and scale up of two approaches which are supported by several partners: CMAM Surge and Family MUAC. The Nutrition sector group meeting foreseen for the end of March was postponed to beginning of April, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Instead, partners provided inputs on priority actions and adaptations to programme interventions to contribute to the prevention of transmission of COVID-19. The group started working on an orientation guide (or standard operating procedures) which aims to ensure an effective, harmonized and coordinated nutrition response among nutrition partners in the context of COVID-19, while respecting the do-no-harm principle.
