Darfur

Disaster affected populations

WFPLCU has responded to many requests for NFI/ES assistance as a result of fire outbreaks that destroy IDP shelters. Toward preventing or minimizing these occurrences, WFPLCU together OCHA and UNAMID is promoting the need for increased sensitization and fire prevention campaigns in and around the camps. WFPLCU has encouraged Sector partners to conduct fire prevention awareness among the communities they support by providing information material for dissemination and for use for training during their other activities in the camps. The issue is also discussed during the NFI and Camp Coordination meetings.
