HOW IS FOREIGN AID ADDRESSING EDUCATION AND SEXUAL EXPLOITATION, ABUSE AND HARASSMENT (SEAH) AGAINST WOMEN AND GIRLS IN SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA IN THIS PANDEMIC ERA? New Evidence from NigeriaRESEARCH QUESTIONS1. To what extent is foreign aid helping to combat SEAH against women and girls in Nigeria in the Covid-19 pandemic era? And are there differences in the impact of foreign aid on SEAH Against Women and Girls before and during the pandemic?2. In what ways are cultural practices promoting/tolerating sexual abuse, leading to the disempowerment of women in Nigeria in the Covid-19 Pandemic era?3. Does access to education reduce the likelihood of girls getting sexually abused in Nigeria? And Is the empowerment of women counterproductive in the fight against SEAH in Nigeria?4. What are the local solutions for dealing with the problem of sexual abuse in Nigeria?BACKGROUND AND RATIONALE FOR THE STUDYReports of violence and sexual abuse against women and girls around the world during the Covid-19 pandemic has been on the rise since the outbreak in 2020. According to UNWomen (2020), one in three women worldwide experience physical or sexual violence mostly by an intimate partner, and this has worsened due to the pandemic. Many reports including United Nations (2021), OECD (2021), and UNwomen (2020) maintain that almost half of all women reported that they or a woman they know began to experience gender-based violence during the pandemic across 13 countries. Thus, these reports have shown that all types of violence and sexual abuse against women and girls have intensified since the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic. It is so bad that the act has now been tagged as the shadow pandemic or the neglected pandemic UNWomen (2020).Authors such as Yenilmez (2020), and reports from UN|Sexual Violence in Conflict, (2020) UNFPA, (2020), and UNWomen (2020) maintain that restrictions being placed to curtail the rise of Covid-19 is aiding the rise of all types of gender-based violence, and these further mounts more pressure on medical facilities. This begs the question of how the Covid-19 pandemic is changing the effectiveness of strategies deployed to end SEAH which presents an opportunity to reassess the effectiveness of the bilateral official development assistance which began in 2016, towards ending SEAH Against Women and Girls captured under the ODA reporting sector purpose code 15180. However, the extent to which this financial assistance has helped to reduce SEAH has not been explored in literature, especially in this Covid-19 era. Although the role of ODA in Sub-Saharan Africa has been a controversial topic, the recipients have continued to admonish it as a viable source of funds to solve problems that they would not have had the required resources to combat. Nonetheless, continued reliance on ODA especially in the fight against SEAH may not be the best as there is no guarantee of continuous flow thus, there is a need for local solutions as well, which is also a part of the objectives to be addressed in this proposalDespite there being a plethora of literature on sexual abuse against women and girls around the world, only a few research papers have addressed how the Covid-19 pandemic is affecting the fight against it. Many papers done are literature-based due to the difficulty of obtaining data during the lockdown, coupled with the fact that there is no current data on demographic and health surveys. Thus, this present research may be the first research to attempt to expand this topic further by incorporating the effectiveness of ODA towards ending SEAH in Sub-Saharan Africa

在这个大流行时代，外国援助如何解决撒哈拉以南非洲妇女和女孩的教育，虐待和骚扰（SEAH）？尼日利亚研究问题的新证据1。外国援助在多大程度上有助于与19次大流行时代的尼日利亚对抗尼日利亚的妇女和女孩在多大程度上对抗SEAH？大流行之前和期间，外国援助对SEAH对妇女和女孩的影响是否存在差异？2。文化实践以何种方式促进/容忍性虐待，从而导致尼日利亚在尼日利亚的妇女在19009年大流行时代的丧气？3。接受教育的机会是否会减少女孩在尼日利亚进行性虐待的可能性？在尼日利亚与SEAH的斗争中，妇女的赋权是否适得其反？4。在尼日利亚处理性虐待问题的本地解决方案是什么？背景和基本原理对在2020年爆发以来，在1920年爆发以来，对世界各地的妇女和女孩的暴力和性虐待对世界各地的妇女和女孩的依据是什么。包括联合国（2021年），经合组织（2021）和《顽强（2020年》）在内的许多报告坚称，几乎一半的妇女报告说，她们或他们认识的妇女在13个国家的大流行期间开始遇到基于性别的暴力。因此，这些报道表明，自COVID-19-19大流行爆发以来，对妇女和女孩的所有类型的暴力和性虐待都在加剧。如此糟糕，以至于该行为现在被标记为阴影大流行或被忽视的大流行（2020年）。对医疗设施施加更大的压力。这就引出了一个问题，即如何改变了为结束SEAH部署的策略的有效性，这是一个问题，这为始于2016年开始的双边官方发展援助的有效性，为了结束SEAH的有效性，以结束对妇女和女孩的有效性，以对ODA报告行业目的范围捕获的妇女和女孩的限制尤其降低了该范围的范围。时代。尽管ODA在撒哈拉以南非洲的作用一直是一个有争议的话题，但接收者继续告诫它是可行的资金来源，以解决他们没有必要的资源来应对的问题。尽管如此，尤其是在与SEAH的斗争中持续依靠ODA可能并不是最好的，因为不能保证连续流动，因此，也需要当地解决方案，这也是该提议中要解决的目标的一部分，尽管有很多关于对世界各地的妇女和女孩的文学虐待，但只有很少的研究论文对斗争的斗争却在竞争中遭受了斗争，这是对Cosic的斗争，这是对codiccip的斗争。由于在锁定期间难以获得数据，因此许多论文是基于文献的，再加上目前没有关于人口统计和健康调查的数据。因此，本研究可能是第一个尝试通过纳入ODA在撒哈拉以南非洲结束SEAH的有效性来进一步扩展该主题的研究
