The Nigeria Window of the Regional Stabilization Facility (RSF) supports the immediate stabilization in the Boko Haram–affected Borno, Adamawa and Yobe (BAY) states in north-east Nigeria through an area based, integrated civilian programme of activities delivered as a rapid response package.

 The project was initiated in September 2019 as one of the four national windows of the regional Lake Chad Basin (LCB) Stabilization Facility, along with Chad, Cameroon and Niger. The RSF began by formulating Joint Action Plans (JAPs) with key stakeholders to support security, basic service provision, and livelihoods in target communities that had been devasted by the conflict. Six JAPs have been implemented in 2020 and 2021 for Banki, Damboa, Monguno, and Ngarannam in Borno, Gulak in Adamawa, and Bun Yadi in Yobe. 

This annual report covers project progress and results from the calendar year 2021 as the RSF implementation demonstrated significant achievements. The results reported for 2021 serve as a proof of concept for the RSF.
