In this project MdM will be opening a new mission in North-West Katsina state (Zango LGA). 
The MdM community-based approach (CBA) seeks to empower the communities about theire rights to health and access to services that are available for them; we need CBA to raise people's awareness on health-related issues, so they are able to recognize signs of emergencies or life-threatening situations and take precautions against epidemic disease. Additionally, MdMs CBA seeks to educate the community on malnutrition, hygiene practices, and the significance of immunization and sexual reproductive health and rights in reducing morbidity and death. MDM will increase its localization efforts by deepening the already existing partnership with partners and investing in capacity building. MdM plans to delegate the implementation of the community-based activities to partners, while MDM will focus on the capacity building. Partners will cover all community activities through an integrated approach. Partners will play a key function in informing and empowering communities in general on health-related topics with a specific focus on GBV and empowering people to disclose and report GBV when they see it in their communities. The partnership with partners will be supported by a memorandum of understanding explaining the roles and responsibilities of each party, which includes the monitoring, program and finical reporting and the capacity building supported by MdM.
