This grant aims to reduce violence against civilians in northern Nigeria through enhanced early warning and response. It supports Village Monitoring Systems, integrating satellite imagery of burning incidents with local early responders. This program will prevent and mitigate predicted violence by providing timely intelligence. Initially targeting high-risk local government areas in Zamfara, Kaduna, Plateau, and Taraba States, which have experienced high civilian killings. The geographic focus may adapt based on analysis.

| Description: | The goal of this program is to reduce violence against civilians in at-risk areas of northern Nigeria by enhancing early warning and early response efforts. This program will pair commercially available satellite imagery analysis of village burning incidents with an on-the-ground network of trained early responders to prevent and mitigate predicted violence against civilians. In its first year, this program will focus on several target local government areas (LGAs) of four states in northern Nigeria that have experienced high civilian killings in recent years: Zamfara, Kaduna, Plateau, and Taraba States. Based on analysis of the satellite imagery and other risk factors, the geographic focus of this program may shift or expand in year two. |
