United Kingdom Department for International Development (UKAID), in partnership with Oxford Policy Management, has supported about 98,000 pregnant and lactating women in Jigawa and Zamfara states with N4,000 monthly stipend in the last six years.

The Child Development Grant Programme (CDGP) implemented from 2013 to 2019 by Save the Children (SC) and Action Against Hunger provided monthly unconditional cash transfers to pregnant and lactating women from pregnancy until the child is two years.

Country Manager, Oxford Policy Management, Femi Adegoke, during the Dissemination of the Endline findings of the CDGP project yesterday in Abuja, disclosed that the aim of the project was to reach children in their first 1,000 days, being the most significant part of life.
