Experience5 – 7 years
Location
Research consultancy: Access to Justice Assessment for GBV Survivors
Project Information:
Project Title: Restoring Dignity and Protection for Conflict-Affected Women and Girls in Ortese and Daudu IDP camps, Benue State, Nigeria.
Partner Org: Foundation for Justice Development and Peace (FJDP)
Project Donor: CDCS
Assignment Type: Research Consultancy
Start Date: September 2026 (tentative, subject to final agreement)
Duration: 3 months
Background
Conflict and displacement in Benue State have significantly increased the vulnerability of women, girls, and children to gender-based violence (GBV). While humanitarian actors have established essential GBV response services, access to formal legal and judicial remedies remains critically limited.
Available evidence suggests that only a small proportion of survivors pursue formal justice pathways. This is driven by a combination of:
Weak legal enforcement and procedural barriers
Limited institutional capacity and coordination among justice actors
Ineffective referral pathways between GBV and legal services
Socio-cultural norms, stigma, and fear of retaliation
Low awareness of rights and available services
Informal and community-based justice mechanisms also play a prominent role but may not consistently align with survivor-centered and rights-based standards.
To address these challenges, Tdh seeks to generate context-specific, actionable evidence to inform programming and strengthen access to justice for GBV survivors in IDP settings.
Description of the Assignment
Purpose
The purpose of this assignment is to conduct a participatory, survivor-centered assessment to identify and analyze the systemic, institutional, and socio-cultural barriers limiting access to SGBV survivors—particularly legal and judicial support— for conflict-affected women and girls, and to use the findings to develop practical Guidelines and SOPs.
Scope
The assessment will adopt a 360-degree “justice journey” approach, examining:
Survivor pathways from incident to service access and justice outcomes
Availability and accessibility of legal, judicial, and GBV services
Functionality of referral pathways and case management systems
Institutional capacity and coordination among service providers
Socio-cultural norms influencing reporting and justice-seeking
Legal awareness and information access
Role and influence of informal justice systems
The study will prioritize internally displaced women and girls, including adolescent girls and children, while incorporating perspectives from communities and service providers.
Key Research Domains
Survivor access and justice pathways
Systemic and institutional barriers
Socio-cultural norms and gender dynamics
Awareness and information gaps
Informal justice mechanisms
Opportunities for systems strengthening
Methodological Orientation (Indicative)
While a mixed-methods approach is anticipated, the consultant will justify their methodological choices during inception, which may include KIIs, FGDs, participatory mapping, and other approaches appropriate to the research questions. The research may be primarily qualitative, with limited quantitative elements that prioritizes participatory methods, including:
Key considerations:
Use of non-representative, qualitative sampling (e.g., purposive and snowballing)
Building on existing datasets / evidence as a starting point, the Consultant would ensure necessary integrations from previous or available studies, to avoid duplication.
Application of gender-transformative, human rights-based, and child-sensitive approaches.
Strict adherence to GBV ethical research standards
The selected consultant will develop a detailed methodology in the inception phase.
Indicative Research Questions
The assessment will be guided by a set of indicative research questions aligned with the key domains. These are intended to provide analytical direction, while allowing the consultant to refine and expand them during the inception phase.
Survivor Pathways and Access
What pathways do GBV survivors follow from incident occurrence to seeking support and justice?
At what stages do survivors disengage from formal justice processes, and why?
Systemic and Institutional Barriers
What legal, policy, and procedural barriers limit access to justice for GBV survivors?
What capacity and coordination gaps exist among justice and GBV service providers?
Socio-Cultural Norms
How do gender norms, stigma, and power dynamics influence reporting and justice-seeking behavior?
Awareness and Information
What is the level of awareness of rights and available services among women and girls?
What barriers exist in accessing reliable information?
Informal Justice Systems
What role do informal mechanisms play in GBV case resolution?
How do these mechanisms align with survivor-centered and rights-based approaches?
Systems Strengthening
What practical and context-specific interventions can improve access to justice?
What are the priority actions for strengthening referral systems and coordination?
Note: The consultant is expected to refine and operationalize these questions in the inception phase.
Conceptual Framework and Analytical Lens (To be developed by the Consultant)
The consultant will develop an original conceptual framework that may draw on justice journey models, systems analysis, or other analytical approaches as deemed most appropriate.
Objectives of the Study
Overall Objective
To generate actionable evidence on barriers to justice for GBV survivors to inform programming, advocacy, and systems strengthening.
Specific Objectives
Identify and map good and promising practices, as well as gaps, weaknesses, and loopholes in legislative, policy, and institutional frameworks addressing gender-based violence;
Document and analyse the various forms of discrimination, exclusion, and barriers faced by girl and women survivors in accessing both statutory and customary justice mechanisms, considering intersecting vulnerabilities and grounds of discrimination, including age, disability, socio-economic status, place of residence, displacement status, and other relevant factors;
Examine statutory justice processes and identify barriers, judicial bias, gender stereotyping, secondary victimisation, violations of rights and due process guarantees, and other harmful practices affecting survivors at each stage of formal GBV proceedings, including reporting, investigation, prosecution, trial, sentencing, and post-trial enforcement;
In the customary processes: document the social, familial, and community pressures exerted on girls and other GBV survivors to settle cases outside the formal justice system; assess the extent to which customary justice mechanisms provide safe, fair, and rights-based responses to GBV; analyse how patriarchal norms, discriminatory gender attitudes, and unequal power relations shape proceedings and outcomes; identify barriers preventing survivors from accessing formal justice; and examine the potential harmful effects of customary settlements, including impunity, inadequate remedies, revictimisation, social exclusion, and negative impacts on survivors’ physical, psychological, and socio-economic well-being.
Compile and analyse quantitative and qualitative data on legal aid, judicial support, and case processing for survivors of GBV, including:
the number of cases receiving legal aid;
the number of cases formally reported (complaints filed);
the number of withdrawn cases (discontinuations), along with the reasons for withdrawal;
the number of cases handled at different judicial levels and court case disposal rates;
the number of cases adjudicated;
the number of convictions secured;
and the number of cases in which survivors received reparations;
Identify and formulate evidence-based recommendations for programming, advocacy, legal reform, institutional strengthening, and policy interventions aimed at improving access to justice for women and girls affected by GBV, strengthening survivor-centred and gender-responsive justice systems and increasing the representation and participation of women within judicial and justice sector institutions.
Assess effectiveness of current referral pathways and case management practices

Action Against Hunger | ACF Nigeria LTD/GTE, a global humanitarian organization committed to ending world hunger, works to save the lives of malnourished children while providing communities with access to safe water and sustainable solutions to hunger.
Experience5 – 8 years Location Borno , Yobe.
PD Reference: PD-ABU-03924
Summary of the proposed response:
Focusing entirely on improving nutrition outcomes among target populations through multi-sectoral interventions, the project will support improved access to quality nutrition services through the management of acute malnutrition to prevent widespread morbidity and mortality of the vulnerable populations in Borno (Konduga and Nganzai LGA) and Yobe (Machina and Nguru LGA) states. ACF and partner’s proposed response focused on the first 1,000 days of life approach including pregnant and breastfeeding women.
The project supports the treatment of severe acute malnutrition in 12 OTPs (6 HFs in Borno and 6HFs in Yobe) and including 2 stabilization centres in hotspot locations in Konduga and Nganzai LGAs for management of complicated and uncomplicated form of malnutrition. Screening for acute malnutrition isdone both at the facility and community level while conducting interventions on Maternal, Infant, and Young Child Nutrition (MIYCN) and care practices, psychological first aid, psychoeducation, individual and group counselling and referral for children and caregivers of malnourish children. The project also provides conditional cash to mothers of children with moderate acute malnutrition (MAM) at group level to access high energy dense local nutritious diets (Tom-Brown). These community led activities are linked with vaccination programs, counselling on maternal health care practices including sexual reproductive health and right such as decision on number of children to birth, when to have sexual intercourse and option for family planning. This holistic approach aims to improve the health and nutrition outcome of the pregnant and breastfeeding women.
With a major focus on the 1000 days of life and due to the high number of children <6 month in the project locations, ACF is implementing the MAMI (Management of At-risk Mothers and Infants) approach in Konduga, Nganzai, Machina and Nguru LGAs for the management of small and nutritionally at-risk infants <6 months and their mothers. At every community or health service contact point, each mother infant-pair identified either during post-natal service as the health facility or in the community will undergo a rapid screening assessment. All mother-infant pairs referred for a full assessment will receive a more thorough assessment (including IMCI clinical assessment, infant growth and feeding, maternal mental health and wellbeing) to identify specific issues to inform the type and level of care needed.
To improve knowledge, attitude and practice of Pregnant and Breastfeeding Women and Girls (PBWG), Women of Childbearing Age (WCBA) and Caregivers of children aged 0-23 months (including men/fathers) on optimum
MIYCN practices through social and behavioural change communication, ACF and partner is strengthening the mother-to-mother groups and Tom-brown preparation groups which also serves as platforms for peer based psychosocial support, referral information and community resilience building in the catchment areas of the supported HFs. The women targeted under the mothers’ groups receives support to livelihood and agricultural activities.
To strengthen nutrition outcomes during the first 1,000 days of life, hygiene, sanitation and the BabyWASH approach is integrated into both target health facilities and catchment communities. At the community level, the initiative promotes optimal caregiving practices and the use of essential resources to improve household and environmental conditions through hygiene and sanitation sensitization.
ACF and partners are promoting women’s economic empowerment and small-scale agro-ecological vegetable production to improve household income and nutrition. These efforts are integrated with Mother-to-Mother (MtM) groups, support for caregivers of MAM children, and households with at-risk children under the MAMI approach. Food assistance will further improve mothers’ (PBW) and U2 children’s nutrition for healthy growth and prevent malnutrition.
Mainstreamed into all results, ACF and partner integrate gender into capacity-building trainings conducted at health facilities, ensuring that communities, volunteers and healthcare personnel are equipped with an understanding of gender norms, challenges, and concerns specific to project locations. This approach will enable them to provide more inclusive and responsive services, addressing the distinct needs of women, men, girls, and boys effectively.
Objectives of the external evaluation:
The goal of this exercise is to evaluate the overall goal of the project in terms of effectiveness, relevance, efficiency, coherence, outcome, likelihood of sustainability and impact of interventions in the implementing locations. The primary objective of this evaluation is to assess the overall achievements of the project in line with the agreed overall results and objectives.
Geographical scope coverage: Borno state (Konduga and Nganzai LGAs) Yobe state (Machina and Nguru LGAs), North-East, Nigeria.
