Poor And Needy (PAN)

What we do

Crises

 

Whether it is a sudden emergency or an ongoing crisis, PAN works to aid people in need around the world.    Providing shelter and other basic needs

         As written in the United Nations Humanitarian Bulletin, Local Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) are often the first responders when a humanitarian crisis erupts. They have a deep understanding of the context and the legitimacy to work with communities before, during and after the crisis. Since the Northwest/South-West socio-political crisis escalated into armed violence in late 2017, existing CSOs have been on the frontline, providing emergency relief to families forced to flee their villages. With no humanitarian actors present in the two regions, building up the capacity of these CSOs is critical to access and assist people in need, especially in hard to-reach areas where most families have sought refuge.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Women/Girls

we put

women and girls in the center, because we know that we cannot overcome poverty until all people have equal rights and opportunities

Health

 

Health in Emergencies

Natural disasters, armed conflict and political unrest increase women’s and girls’ vulnerability. The crisis makes it harder to access maternal health services even as the need for them becomes more urgent. In these settings, PAN works to deliver life-saving mobile health interventions to children in conflict zones. PAN works to deliver sensitive emergency programming that meets the needs of all people, particularly women and girls.
