United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) has begun consultation with government and partners in Kano, Jigawa, and Katsina states to shape the Federal Government of Nigeria/UNICEF Country Programme for 2028–2032.
Chief of UNICEF Kano Field Office, Shafeeq Ur-Rehman, said on Wednesday in Kano that the new programme must address climate shocks, insecurity, urbanisation, and other challenges affecting children.
“We are here to listen, to learn and to co-create – not to present predetermined solutions,” he said at the consultation in Kano.
