Vocational Skills Training for IDPs – MMC & Jere LGAs – Aid Initiative to Support Vulnerable & Idle People (AISVIP)

Vocational Skills Training for IDPs – MMC & Jere LGAs

In partnership with Danish Refugee Council (DRC)

Project Overview

AISVIP implemented a targeted vocational skills training programme to empower vulnerable men and women living in internally displaced persons (IDP) camps across MMC and Jere LGAs in Borno State. The project aimed to enhance self-reliance, restore dignity, and reduce economic vulnerability among displaced populations.

Participants received integrated training and support in carpentry, leatherwork, tailoring, soap production, welding, aluminum fabrication, as well as entrepreneurship and small business development, and financial literacy and basic money management to strengthen their capacity for sustainable income generation.
