The main objective of this $2.5m UNICEF is to provide life-saving nutrition and to (re-)enrol IDP children in formal and non-formal education.

In addition, UNICEF and its partners are establishing 60 temporary learning spaces and equipping them with learning materials and appropriate water and sanitation facilities to enable 10,000 children to access education.
