NG-CARES organises 4-day PLES, consultative meeting in Abuja
The Federal Cares Support Unit (FCSU) of the Nigeria Community Action for Resilience and Economic Stimulus (NG-CARES)Programme is organising a 4-day National Peer Learning and Experience Sharing (PLES) event, and the National Consultative Meeting (NCM) in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.
According to Olayinka Jimoh Salau, the representative of the Kwara NG-CARES in Abuja, the PLES and the NCM have both been scheduled to take place at Chida International Hotel, Utako, Abuja, from Monday, 28 to Thursday, 31 October 2024, beginning at 9:00 am daily.
Kwara State has been at the forefront and a leading example since the programme’s inception in 2020.
The 4-day event attracts participants from the 36 States of the Federation and representatives from the Federal Capital Territory, with the primary objective of the National PLES event poised to consolidate and make recommendations on key challenges identified by the stakeholders during the Zonal PLES events while reports from this event are expected to be filled into the ongoing discussion on the NG-CARES Additional Financing (AF).
Similarly, the objective of the National Consultative Meeting is to seek the concurrence of States/FCT on the finalisation of major elements of the design of the NG-CARES AF.
NG-CARES is a World Bank and State Governments-supported programme to alleviate poverty among the poor and vulnerable people.
