Caritas is currently implementing a rights-based protection initiative across Makurdi, Guma, Gwer West, Kwande, and Logo LGAs to safeguard displaced populations facing critical risks. Through regular monitoring of IDPs in camps and host communities, the project identifies protection concerns, service gaps, and emerging trends, ensuring timely referrals for survivors of GBV, children at risk, and individuals subjected to unlawful detention. A strong legal aid component provides counselling, support for reporting crimes, resolving disputes, and detention monitoring in collaboration with law enforcement. At the community level, Caritas engages peace committees, women\u2019s and youth groups to strengthen reporting and referral pathways, while awareness campaigns promote rights education and safe complaint mechanisms. To ensure accountability, feedback systems are actively reinforced, enabling communities to report concerns and shape service delivery. Insights gathered continuously inform monitoring, legal programming, and advocacy, making this an adaptive and responsive protection project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
