About
SOLIDARITÉS INTERNATIONAL operates in the cities of Maiduguri, Monguno, Ngala and Dikwa in Borno State, and is also able to provide emergency response to cholera outbreaks in Adamawa and Yobe States. In addition, since the end of 2020, SOLIDARITÉS INTERNATIONAL is also developing projects in Zamfara State, northwest Nigeria, in the water, hygiene and sanitation (WASH) and food security and livelihoods (FSL) sectors.
SOLIDARITÉS INTERNATIONAL’s approach focuses primarily on addressing urgent needs for water, sanitation, hygiene, food security and shelter/essential household items, as well as preventing and responding to disease outbreaks. In parallel to this emergency response, and despite access constraints and growing insecurity in the northeast, SOLIDARITÉS INTERNATIONAL is managing to maintain early recovery activities, including livelihood recovery.
Thanks to their strong emergency response capacity, SOLIDARITÉS INTERNATIONAL teams work in coordination with health actors and government agencies to combat malnutrition and recurrent disease outbreaks.
In order to fight cholera outbreaks, our teams provide a rapid response, including specific activities such as disinfection of homes, chlorination of water points, distribution of cholera kits, construction/rehabilitation of water points and latrines as well as awareness-raising on cholera and its spread in order to stop the outbreak peaks. In addition, SOLIDARITÉS INTERNATIONAL coordinates the Cholera Task Force in Borno and the neighboring states of Adamawa and Yobe.
Our teams work within the framework of an integrated approach to ensure that the vital needs of populations in hard-to-reach areas are met. This approach includes the various actors present in the intervention zone: local and national authorities, the various clusters (i.e., sectors of activity), partners (i.e., NGOs), and the beneficiary communities themselves. These interventions respond to the most urgent needs but also work on the longer term by building or rehabilitating insufficient or non-functional sustainable infrastructures.
In addition, the construction of boreholes or the installation of generators or solar equipment on existing structures ensure the sustainability of access to drinking water. SOLIDARITÉS INTERNATIONAL also provides community with training and equipment to ensure that the infrastructures are maintained in the long term.
Finally, in order to limit the spread of COVID-19, SOLIDARITÉS INTERNATIONAL has adapted its response by raising people’s awareness on COVID preventive measures in its areas of intervention, by building new hand-washing stations and distributing appropriate hygiene kits.
