Focus will be on equity and inclusion in access to land, natural and production resources. The intervention will cover Zone 3 and surrounding host community in BidiBidi refugee settlement, in Yumbe district. The intervention will build advocacy collaborations and linkages for Self Help Groups (SHGs) engagements with local, national and/or international stakeholders to sustain access to priority support. The intervention will transform the targeted 420 refugee and community households-PoCs, People of Concern, currently under the existing 14 VSLAs, Village savings and Loans Associations, into 14 strong SHGs, , that spearhead community driven initiatives in climate adaptation and livelihood self-reliance. Capacities of the 14 SHGs will be strengthened in aspects of human rights awareness, conflict resolution, and advocacy for access to priority community and natural resources. The groups are the same as in Bidi 1 and 2. The intervention is also to support climate change adaptation and livelihood improvement systems, initiatives, technologies and practices of the targeted 420 households, especially, those that promote livelihood self-reliance and resilience.
