About Relief International Africa

Our Experience, Work, and Funding

Relief International Africa has received a subgrant from UNDEF via Women United for Economic Empowerment (WUEE) to support women and youth participation in local governance (2021). We participated in the USAID SCALE PALLADIUM Youth Development Cluster (2022/23) to amplify voices in national policy review.

On Feb 28, 2024, we launched the Human Rights Clinic to raise awareness on abuses by security forces, offer legal aid, document cases, and provide dispute resolution and early warning mechanisms.
