Action in the field
In
Syria
, the IFRC continued to work with Syrian
Arab Red Crescent (SARC) to build technical
expertise and to scale up livelihood interven-
tions to decrease dependency on humanitarian
assistance. In 2022, SARC reached more than
31,000 people, who increased food production
or their income through vocational training and
business start-up.
The IFRC, in partnership with UNICEF, worked
to assist 30,000 people through the Shock
Responsive Social Protection project. In
Afghanistan
, the National Society provided
multipurpose cash to nearly 5,300 households
with the IFRC’s support.
Within the Pan African “Zero Hunger” Initiative,
the IFRC supported
Nigeria
and
Democratic
Republic of Congo (DRC)
with activities around
cash and vouchers, food security, livelihoods,
shelter, health and nutrition, wash, and pro-
tection, gender, and inclusion. In 2022, almost
54,000 people were reached by the “
Zero Hunger
”
initiatives in DRC, and 2,900 people were helped
to start or improve their income-generating
activities in 2022.
The IFRC reinforced innovation activities in
emergency preparedness in the
Democratic
Republic of Congo
. The IFRC fostered the use
of innovative and adapted risk communication
approaches to share vital information with
affected and at-risk communities. As a result,
over 666,000 people were directly reached
through community awareness sessions on the
risks they face in their respective environments.
Syria is a good example of the use of
data-innovation in emergencies. The IFRC
supported the National Society to undertake
post-distribution monitoring which they are
now routinely conducting after interventions.
The information collected is providing essential
data that helps gain a better understanding of
the Syrian population’s multidimensional needs.
