This annual report highlights a year of determined adaptation, partnership, and impact. Despite the volatile environment, NDC and our partners demonstrated incredible perseverance, working tirelessly to deliver essential support to the most vulnerable communities. This report is a testament to what can be achieved through collective effort and unwavering commitment.

This study has been prepared as part of the AJIR+ project, which aims to enhance the awareness and integration of gender needs among Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) submitting project proposals to the NDC. The primary objective is not to focus solely on gender-focused projects but to encourage CSOs to address gender issues within their proposals. The AJIR+ project, supported by AFD, includes a comprehensive log frame, financing plan, and a gender action plan developed during the design stage to ensure gender considerations are incorporated into all project facets.
