Solidarites International has been operating in Borno State since July
2016, and is strongly focusing on the massive life-saving needs of the
conflict-affected populations, through a 3-legged strategy:
Emergency multisectorial assessment capacity in remote LGAs** aiming at
allowing the provision of concrete, response-sizing-oriented data to the
humanitarian community, in strong coordination with mapping and
coordination actors (OCHA, IOM DTM).
Rapid Response Mechanism in
newly accessible LGAs, in order to provide adequate, massive rapid
responses. The scope of intervention considers an integrated response so
as to cover the basic essential needs of displaced and non-displaced
populations.
Multisectorial early recovery interventions in
secured areas, implemented at neighborhood level in order to take into
consideration the environmental context, risk factors, availability of
resources and resilience capacities at a community level. This holistic
approach entails a vulnerability-tailored assistance combined with a
capacity building component.
