activities aimed at strengthening social peace, cohesion and national unity; ix) recommending solutions to the new forms of destabilizing insecurity linked to terrorism and all forms of trafficking and assessing their impact on the communities of the areas concerned, and x) contributing to the negotiated settlement of armed conflicts and rebellions. 25. 3N Initiative High Commission (Nigeriens Feeding Nigeriens): Established by Decree No. 2011-407/PRN of 6 September 2011, its vision is to ensure that Niger is able to face any food and nutritional insecurity and to ensure that its agricultural sector fully plays its role as a vector for the transformation of society and economic growth. Its objective is to meet the national food demand by providing local agricultural and agri-food products and boosting the incomes of farmers in the process. The 3N HC is an authority attached to the Office of the President of the Republic. It ensures inter-sectoral coordination and facilitates the attainment of Niger’s sustainable food and nutrition security as well as agricultural development objectives. It is in charge of coordination, planning, technical, economic and financial studies, mobilization of funding, stimulation of reforms and monitoring-evaluation. Its work is mainly to stimulate, direct, coordinate, monitor and assess the implementation of the 3N “Nigeriens Feeding Nigeriens” Initiative Strategy. It was adopted by Decree No. 2012-139/PRN of 18 April 2012. Its overall objective is to “sustainably protect the people of Niger from hunger and malnutrition as well as to ensure that measures are put in place to allow them to fully participate in national production and to improve their incomes.” In specific terms, the aim is to strengthen national food production capacity, supplies and resistance to disasters. The 3N Initiative Strategy is structured around five (5) strategic pillars, namely: (i) Strategic Pillar 1: Increase and diversification of agricultural, forestry, livestock and fish production; (ii) Strategic Pillar 2: Regular supply of agricultural and agri-food products to the rural and urban markets; (iii) Strategic Pillar 3: Improvement in the resilience of the people in the face of climate change, crises and disasters; (iv) Strategic Pillar 4: Improvement in the Nutritional Status of the people of Niger, and (v) Strategic Pillar 5: Direction and coordination of the 3N Initiative and stimulation of reforms. Decree No. 2016-603/PRN of 3 November 2016 on the organization and running of the 3N Initiative High Commission specifies the organization and mode of operation of the departments and divisions which make up the 3NHC, together with the orders specifying the terms of reference. 26. Anti-Corruption and Related Offences High Authority (HALCIA): It is a permanent State body initially established by Decree No. 2011-215/PRN/MJ of 26 July 2011. Owing to the fact that this law does not comply with the Jakarta Principles on national anti-corruption institutions and the provisions of the United Nations Convention Against Corruption, Law No. 2016-44 of 6 December 2016 has been passed. This law now governs the organization, terms of reference and functioning of the institution. This law strengthens the legal and institutional capacity of the HALCIA which currently has powers to take up cases on its own initiative, conduct criminal investigations, access investigation or monitoring reports, identify, locate and freeze proceeds from corruption and to place exhibits under seal. Furthermore, investigation reports prepared by the HALCIA are forwarded to the Attorney-General who must call for the opening of a judicial enquiry. It has a National Anti-Corruption Strategy Document (SNLC) and an action plan (2018-2020) adopted by Decree No. 2018-007/PRN of 5 January 2018. The SNLC is structured around three main focal points, namely the strengthening of the prevention of corruption, improvement in the systems to crackdown on corruption and the strengthening of partnership and cooperation at the national and international levels in the fight against corruption and related offences. The HALCIA, whose mission is to prevent and combat corruption and related offences, is tasked with the design, formulation, implementation and monitoring of the SNLC and its action plan in collaboration with the other bodies concerned. It is important to emphasize that the HALCIA has a twitter account, Facebook and YouTube pages as well as a website (www.halcia.ne) containing complaints and disclosure files which enable it to get closer to the people. This institution is made up of seven (7) permanent members, namely: 18
