Federal Government of Nigeria Signs MoU with Asian Economic Development Committee to boost community skills training and economic self-sufficiency.
Under the Integrated Child Health and Social Services Award (ICHSSA 1), the Centre for Clinical Care and Clinical Research Nigeria (CCCRN) launched an intensive community vocational skills program across target local government areas in northern and north-central Nigeria.
The project equips primary caregivers of vulnerable children and adolescents with practical, high-demand entrepreneurial skills—including liquid soap and detergent making, antiseptic disinfectant production, and basic book-keeping.
"When caregivers possess reliable livelihoods, children stay in school, healthcare appointments are kept, and communities build resilience against economic shocks."
Through sustained multi-sectoral collaboration with state ministries of women affairs and social development, CCCRN continues to champion sustainable models of community-driven health and social upliftment.
Timely maternal healthcare and infant nutrition guidance provided at local health facilities empower new mothers to safeguard their babies.

Despite steady gains in HIV treatment coverage across Niger State, testing uptake in rural and peri-urban facilities has continued to lag behind urban centers.
