Desired start date: 22/04/2024
Duration of the mission: 10 months
Location: Mueda, Mozambique
SOLIDARITES INTERNATIONAL (SI) is an international humanitarian aid association which, since more than 40 years, has been providing assistance to populations affected by armed conflicts and natural disasters by meeting their basic needs for food, water and shelter. Particularly committed to the fight against diseases linked to unsafe water, the leading cause of death in the world, SI’s interventions provide expertise in the field of access to drinking water, sanitation and hygiene promotion, but also in the essential area of food security and livelihoods. Present in some twenty countries, the SI teams – 2500 people in total, made up of expatriates, national staff, permanent staff at HQ, and a few volunteers – intervene with professionalism and commitment while respecting cultural norms.
Solidarités International intervened in Mozambique in March 2019 for a few months following the passage of Cyclone Idai, which hit the Province of Sofala and the city of Beira hard. Operations were suspended after the emergency phase and the mission closed. The evolution of the situation in Cabo Delgado province, hit by several cyclones and severely affected by the violent actions of armed groups claiming to be IS, which caused the displacement of nearly 700 000 people, led to an assessment in May 2021 and to the reopening of the mission. The assessment carried out in the most affected district highlighted needs, particularly in the WASH sector, and the lack of emergency actors. The mission has opened in a complex security and administrative environment, where access is a major issue.
Solidarités International was one of the first INGO actors to respond to the growing crisis in Cabo Delgado, leading emergency response and distributions in hard-to-reach areas.
Rapid Response Mechanism launched in 2022 by a consortium NRC, ACF and SI, led by NRC, on 2024 SI is taking over the lead of the new RRM consortium with ACF and REACH, continuing close coordination and collaboration with other 1st line responder through various coordination platforms, notably the OCU (for now internal operational unit) led by SI since 2023. Since 2023, RRM partners have notably gained in visibility and operational capacities through out Cabo Delgado, and now are fully integrated to the AHTC/ICCG coordination platforms to contribute to the timely response in Cabo Delgado.
SI Mozamobique has opened its mission in 2021 by the Emergency SI team in Mueda, and then deployed to Palma. After the official announcement of the reopenning of Total Energie in Palma, SI has decided to concentrate its activities in Mocimboa da Praia district. The main sectors: WASH, RRM, FSL and Shelter
The main challenges:
Coordination with NRC in Mueda / Muidumbe / Nangade district to avoid overall; dynamic security context resulting in access challenges and constant adaption of the activities; capacities of national team request additional support and strong capacity building approach
