Protectting The Rights And Dignity Of The Vulnerable/Marginallized Populations
Protectting The Rights And Dignity Of The Vulnerable/Marginallized Populations
COWACDI is mandated to provide protection to the affected persons, and is part of the cluster response to the needs of internally displaced persons in the areas of Protection, Shelter, Non-Food Items and Camp Coordination/Camp Management.
One of the strategic objectives of COWACDI is to raise awareness, promote policy and strategic approaches and advocate in favor of livelihoods actions.
At COWACDI, we believe Capacity building can be
specific to an intervention or more generally applicable to any intervention.
Selecting staff carefully, providing high-quality training and building
networks are crucial in developing individual and collective capacity within an
organization.
At COWACDI, our approach to NFI distributions
funded by NHF emphasizes the need for involving affected populations before,
during and after distributions. The objective of the distributions is to
ensure that the immediate personal needs of affected populations are covered
and that a minimum level of dignity is ensured. We also ensure that these
kits are culturally appropriate, and cater for the needs of all segments of the
affected population in a non-discriminatory manner.
