Part-Time

The “MOMENTUM Country and Global Leadership” (MCGL), is a four-year USAID funded project led by Jhpiego in consortium partnership with Save the Children, PACT and The Manhoff Group (TMG). The project focuses on Prevention and Mitigation of the consequences of violence against women and girls and addressing possible drivers of Forced Early and Child Marriage (CEFM) and will be implemented in Sokoto and Ebonyi States, to address four technical areas such as Sexual violence (SV), Intimate Partner Violence (IPV), CEFM and Early adoption of family planning.

One of the key formative assessment activities implemented is the GBV services mapping in MCGL focus LGAs (11 per state) in Sokoto and Ebonyi, which was conducted in 2021.  However, MCGL plans to expand this exercise to cover the remaining LGAs in Sokoto and Ebonyi State i.e. 12 in Sokoto and 2 in Ebonyi respectively.
