	Flickr ECHO: Life after Boko Haram: Nigerian refugees in Niger Tens of thousands of Nigerians and migrants have fled to Niger following a string of attacks on villages and towns along the border. The government of Niger has declared a humanitarian emergency and has asked for help in setting up camps. The violence in north-east Nigeria has resulted in the displacement of 200 000 people to neighbouring countries – a majority of whom are in Niger – and over 1.5 million people in Nigeria itself. The European Commission's Humanitarian Aid and Civil Protection department (ECHO) funds urgently needed assistance, but needs are immense and access to people in need remains difficult.
