 Now, the International Organization of Migration, IOM, with search for common-grand SFCG and messy calls, are collaborating on the pilot project, contributing to the mitigation of conflict over natural resources, between famine-headed communities in Adama Rustic, Nigeria, or in short, committees. To contribute to the mitigation of conflict over natural resources, on June 22, IOM, its partners, stakeholders, and government officials converge in Abuja for the second-high-level project-starring committee meeting to provide project updates and share lessons learned and findings aimed at improving trust in authorities and enhancing collaboration between famers and eddies communities. Joining us on the news tonight is Amos Sundari, Project Manager, Committees Project. Glad to have you, Mr. Amos. Good evening, Mr. Amos. Amos, can you hear me? Yes, I can hear you. Good evening. Now, looking at the situation in the northern areas of Nigeria, what do you think is the major cause of famine-headed conflict, apart from, of course, an expansion of human settlement and privatisation of land? Thank you so much for having me. There are many factors. There is also the issue of climate change and the environmental degradation that is going on there. And as we do, this savannah is becoming drier and drier and the desert is encroaching. At the same time, the methods of farming and animal keeping need to be modernised. They're still trying, you know, doing the old ways of grazing in the open and also doing shift cultivation. And these type of things are not sustainable in a modern setting where we have higher population. You need to really maximise on land use. And even land management is also another issue that is affecting the communities where they are not able to manage the land properly and then they have a lot of tensions which escalate into conflict. All right, now, so we have the Commitus Project. How does the IMOM intend to address inter-communal perceptions, especially what the media brings out? So for, in terms of media, we train media professionals on how to do conflict-sensitive reporting. And they also are taught how to promote messages that are focused on peace-building and social cohesion. That's how we try and make sure that the media is responsible. And also, we also have radio stations where there are programmes here that talk about the crisis and how to mitigate it and to prevent violence from escalating at the community level. All right, so finally, before I let you go, anyone in an early response system have been some of the issues that have actually been causing more violence in the region? How does IOM intend to address these issues? Oh, thank you. So with early warning, early response, what we're doing is, across the communities, we are trying to create a system where people share information. They meet regularly in various committees at the World LGA and state level. And they discuss issues that are related to peace. And when they see something happening and they see that this has the potential to become a threat, they're able to resolve it before it becomes worse. Therefore, you find a lot of the issues are resolved early. And therefore, you don't find escalation to violent clashes and things like that happening. All right, so thank you very much for your contributions on the news tonight. Emerson Derry is the Project Manager, Commitus Project. Thank you very much.
