About
Programme DescriptionNiger is home to 18,528,764 inhabitants, of whom 29 percent are aged between 15 and 34. Niger has the highest early marriage rate in the world. Seventy-six percent of Nigerien girls are married before the age of 18 and 33 percent of teenage girls have at least one child. The fertility rate of the Nigerien woman is very high, reaching an average of 7.6 children per woman. This high population growth is creating vast challenges in terms of increased demand for infrastructure and social services. Niger ranks 187th out of 188 countries on the Human Development Index. The Spotlight Initiative will be implemented through an evidence-based intervention strategy, capacity building, and a continuous change process. Number of beneficiaries: 103,200 (direct) | 68,700,000 (indirect) Recipient UN Organizations: UNDP, UNFPA, UN Women and UNICEF.
