VOTRE POSTE ET VOS RESPONSABILITÉS

The protracted crisis in North-West and South-West since 2016 has contributed to the deterioration of the humanitarian context leading to lack of healthcare services, abandonment of school, enrolment of children in armed groups, bans on movements and lockdowns.

These issues increase psychosocial distress among communities and weakens social resilience.
