The International Organization for Migration (IOM) operates the Camp Coordination & Camp Management (CCCM) programme in Ethiopia, working closely with the local communities, Government, particularly the Disaster Risk Management Commission, humanitarian actors, clusters and site management committees. The programme aims to improve living conditions and access to services for affected populations through coordination and information management, site planning, development, maintenance, improvement and community participation.
The CCCM programme operates in a variety of contexts, including static site management (collective centres, planned sites and self-settled sites) and an area-based approach (ABA) for people affected by displacement, including IDPs living in dispersed areas or within host communities. In response to the evolving displacement dynamics in Ethiopia, where many IDPs live outside of camp-like settings, IOM CCCM has prioritized the area-based approach (ABA). This approach facilitates assistance to populations affected by displacement (both host and displaced communities) living in eleven Kebeles (lowest administrative unit in Ethiopia) at Community Resource Centers (CRC) and outreach activities. In addition, IOM CCCM is working to expand the ABA approach in other regions of Ethiopia by involving more sectors, government and other service providers.
As of January 2025, the IOM CCCM program assisted 184,555 people across 27 IDP sites in the Somali and Tigray region and 4 Community Resource Centers (CRCs) in Tigray region. IOM is seeking multi-year funding from donors and support from humanitarian-development actors to continue its multi-stakeholder, multi-sectoral,
Area-Based CCCM response.
