CRS IN SUDAN |
|
|
The overall humanitarian context in Sudan remains characterized by a range of acute and chronic needs, recurrent population displacement from within or outside the country, and natural disasters.
Catholic Relief Services, which has been active in Sudan since 2004, provides life-saving assistance to address the needs of the most vulnerable in conflict-affected and natural disaster-prone areas such as Darfur. CRS also implements longer term programs designed to respond to climate or conflict related shocks through skills building, enhancing basic services and strengthening linkages between local communities and government. These programs maintain the flexibility to enable them to respond to acute needs, such as El Nino related disasters, where necessary, and build longer term resilience and address chronic vulnerability.
CRS is dedicated to helping families and communities rebuild their lives and uses a multi-sectoral, conflict sensitive approach. Our programs focus on building and strengthening the capacities of local systems, to ensure that they have long-term success. CRS strives to improve the quality of life of communities through promoting peace, social justice, gender inclusion, solidarity and compassion. Our programs are tailored to the needs of local communities and implemented in partnership with various local and international organizations.
