Description
Outraged by the injustice faced by people with disabilities and vulnerable populations, we aspire to a world of solidarity and inclusion, enriched by our differences, where everyone can live in dignity.
Handicap International is an independent and impartial aid and development organization working in situations of poverty and exclusion, conflict and disaster. We work alongside disabled and vulnerable people to help meet their essential needs, improve their living conditions and promote respect for their dignity and fundamental rights.
Present in more than 55 countries, Handicap International is composed of 2 operational directions:
- The Direction of Humanitarian Action
- The Direction of Development Action
Through HAD, the organization is committed to:
- Provide an adequate response to major natural disaster and conflict situations, anywhere in the world as much as possible within 72 hours;
- Provide assistance to vulnerable groups (refugees, IDPs, persons with injuries, elders, children, etc.) affected by a crisis and maximize the number of beneficiaries. Within vulnerable groups, target especially PwD and meet their specific needs;
- Constantly monitor chronic crises and/or conflicts to ensure preparedness for and rapid response to eventual emerging needs.
MISSION CONTEXT
The Syrian crisis is the greatest humanitarian crisis of the last 20 years. According to the latest UN figures, about 13.5 million people are currently affected by the crisis in Syria, including about 6.5 million IDPs, while over 4 million Syrians have sought refuge in neighbouring countries or in Europe. The current humanitarian response only provides a patchy and partial coverage of the growing humanitarian needs.
Five years after the beginning of the crisis, the number of injured persons in Syria keeps rising, with a severe lack of rehabilitative care and psychosocial support. In hard-to-reach areas and/or areas of new displacement, local populations and IDPs are in need of emergency assistance in terms of food, household essential items, and other basic needs. The inclusion of the most vulnerable, including persons with disabilities, in the humanitarian response remains a major concern.
HI Syria crisis response is articulated around four main pillars:
1. Provision of accessible comprehensive rehabilitation services ;
2. Emergency response to address immediate needs through reinforcement of access to basic items;
3. Education to the risks and effects caused by conventional weapons (including mines, ERWs and Small Arms Light Weapons);
4. Inclusion component aiming at inclusion of vulnerable groups by other actors.
