Engagement of Cinematographer – Life Skills Lessons at Restoration of Hope Initiative (ROHI)

Restoration of Hope Initiative (ROHI) – Since the insurgency began in 2009, many lives were lost and properties worth billions of Naira destroyed. There has been a lot of migration of people from one location to another location which is considered relatively peaceful, as a result many are displaced and homeless and many international organizations are bringing relief services in the areas of Water Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH), Food Security and Livelihood (FSL), Education, Health and other sectors as listed out in the Humanitarian Response Plan. Some of the local Government Areas (LGA) are relatively peaceful and there is a high population density with men and women who are suffering from poverty, and children who are vulnerable to illiteracy.

Restoration of Hope Initiative (ROHI) is a national non-governmental organization with more than five years of experience engaging with conflict-affected communities in North-Eastern Nigeria to address the issues affecting them. From 2015, ROHI has supported over 150,000 vulnerable children to return to school through non-formal and formal education activities in Adamawa, Borno and Yobe States.

We are recruiting to fill the position below:
