Background
The Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC) is a non-governmental, humanitarian organization with over 60 years of experience in helping to create a safer and more dignified life for refugees and internally displaced people. NRC advocates for the rights of displaced populations and offers assistance within the sectors of Shelter, Education, Protection, Emergency Rapid Response Mechanism, Food Security, Information, Counseling, Legal Assistance (ICLA) and Water Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH).
NRC has operated in Mali since 2013 from our four field offices in Gao, Menaka, Timbuktu and Mopti. NRC strives to meet the basic needs of people affected by violence and displacement.
We provide Education, Shelter, Food Security and livelihood, respond to protection needs and give people Legal Assistance pertinent to civil documentation, Land, Housing and Property rights. We also have a dedicated Emergency Response Mechanism that provides a quick response to multisector needs of people affected by displacement.
In 2020, some funding for ICLA activities had been secured and the country program was able to implement ICLA activities integrated into other Core Competencies. Since the beginning of year 2022, NRC secured BHA funding for a standalone civil documentation project in Gao and Mopti regions before it joined the current ProSahel regional project implemented by International Rescue Committee (IRC)- Danish Refugee Council (DRC)-Norwegian Refugees Council (NRC) consortium. NRC Mali has expanded ICLA activities that supplement other core competencies projects to make the interventions effective. Mali’s context presents significant legal protection needs for vulnerable displaced populations and host communities, in terms of their access to civil documentation, housing, land and property rights and employment and procedures rights.
