Women in IDPs: Nurturing Growth and Strength
We are a community-based initiative empowering women and girls in Nigerian IDP camps through skills, psychosocial support, and mentorship that outlasts crisis.

Empowering displaced women and girls to rebuild their lives with confidence
Displacement often means more than losing a home. For many IDP communities, it interrupts education, income, and access while creating lasting psycho-social challenges.
WINGS began by understanding them.
Our baseline assessment at New Kuchingoro IDP Camp in Abuja found that 32% of participants had no monthly income, while 84% lacked regular computer access. Yet 100% of these displaced women and girls reported having goals and dreams for their future.
Over 1.8 million women and girls in Nigeria have been displaced by conflict
Beyond immediate relief, WINGS works at the intersection of capacity building, social support, and economic opportunity.
We have continued to use community feedback, program monitoring, and reviews to improve implementation
among women and girls in IDP camps.
