The Federal Government on Thursday launched the Humanitarian Supply Chain Management – Partnership for Localisation Project to strengthen Nigeria’s humanitarian response system. The new initiative builds on Nigeria’s Localisation Framework, which was established in 2019, and aims to put national and local institutions at the forefront of humanitarian decision-making. Ahmed further noted that the project would support Nigeria’s localisation framework, creating a platform to advance the agenda. “We are bringing together international and local organisations, along with academia, to develop standardised training in supply chain management. “By empowering local humanitarian groups to access resources, collaborate effectively, enhance skills, take on leadership roles, and influence humanitarian policy, USAID will ensure that local organisations are better equipped, more self-sufficient, and responsive to the needs of their communities,” Taylor-Granados further stated.
