DFID Nigeria's Security, Justice and Growth Programme (SJG) strives to enhance access to, and the quality of, safety, security and justice for poor people and their livelihood.
Through the SJG Programme, the United Kingdom's Department for International Development (DFID) and Nigerian partners are working to realise the values, principles and goals contained in the United Nations Millennium Summit Declaration: peace, security, development, poverty eradication, human rights, democracy, good governance, protecting the vulnerable and meeting the special needs of Africa.
The Programme is organized into three components: Security, Justice and Growth. It is rights based, it is working to enhance equality rights(gender) and it is supporting individuals and groups combating corruption. It promotes inter-agency and state/civil-society co-operation and sector-wide activities.
In June 2002, the Programme commissioned a review and assessment of available research on the justice sector in Nigeria to support the development of a sound evidence base and to guide Programme and policy choices. Read our reports
