The DPTC Project, funded by the European Union and implemented by UNODC, was sub-implemented by WFI over 16 months (extended due to COVID-19). The project focused on building the capacity of state and non-state actors across FCT (Kuje and Kwali) and Nasarawa State (Keana, Nasarawa, and Nasarawa Egon) on drug prevention, treatment, and care.
WFI engaged stakeholders from media, law enforcement, religious groups, healthcare providers, drug store owners, youth, and women leaders. Through sensitization programs promoting evidence-based, human rights, and gender-sensitive approaches to drug use and rehabilitation, WFI reached 833 direct beneficiaries (427 males, 406 females) and nearly 5,000 indirect beneficiaries.
Over 3,500 IEC materials were distributed to support lasting community impact.
Targeted sensitization modules reached 833 (M=427; F=406) direct beneficiaries and nearly 5000 indirect beneficiaries over the course of the project’s 16 months of implementation.
