  • Operational Overview

    Nigeria faces complex humanitarian challenges amid rising internal displacement and hosting over 130,000 refugees, mainly from Cameroon, and constituting 3% of the world’s forcibly displaced persons. With 3.6 million IDPs, largely due to insurgency and conflict, the country’s socio-economic landscape is further strained by climate-related disasters and economic instability. Nigeria is disproportionately affected by structural unemployment, high inflation, and food insecurity mostly on displaced and vulnerable populations. Despite macroeconomic reforms and ongoing reintegration efforts, many returnees continue to lack basic services and remain in displacement. Nigeria’s approach to protection and integration is guided by international frameworks such as the Kampala Convention and the Global Refugee Forum pledges, emphasizing access to services, civil documentation, and the inclusion of displaced populations in national development plans.

    In response to reduced donor funding and increasing needs, UNHCR and the Nigerian government are shifting toward protection-based, sustainable solutions, aligning with the humanitarian-development-peace nexus. Strategic interventions such as livelihoods programs, vocational training, and settlement integration are being scaled in collaboration with development partners and the private sector. UNHCR’s vision focuses on enhancing self-reliance, expanding cash-based assistance, and embedding displacement responses within national systems, including education, healthcare, and renewable energy. Partnerships with IFIs, private actors, and government institutions will be critical to achieving long-term solutions, SDG alignment, and reduced aid dependency.

       Situations related to this country
    • Nigeria - Nigeria Situation

      Northern Nigeria’s conflict with Boko Haram spilled over to the Lake Chad Basin region, where Nigerian refugees are hosted since 2014, causing large scale forced displacement and an unprecedented humanitarian emergency in Cameroon, Chad and Niger.

    • Nigeria - Eradication of Statelessness in the West and Central Africa Region

    • Nigeria - Regional Bureau for West and Central Africa

      With ongoing crises in the Central African Republic (CAR), Mali and Nigeria, as well as increased insecurity in Burkina Faso, more than 7 million people are internally displaced across the region. In this challenging context, UNHCR will assume its tri-cluster leadership role, provide direct assistance to IDPs, ensure that protection is placed at the centre of the multi-stakeholder humanitarian response and that solutions are pursued in coordination with all partners, including key development actors. “The West and Central Africa region faces multiple humanitarian and development challenges. This has not stopped its governments and people from showing solidarity with nearly 5 million refugees and internally displaced people. To be sustainable, this solidarity needs to be supported by adequate funding.” Regional Bureau Director: Mr. Abdouraouf Gnon Konde.
