ACT/Caritas Programme Continues to Help Darfur Refugees
The joint Action by Churches Together/Caritas programme has, over the last 18 months, become one of the largest NGO emergency programmes in Darfur, where it has helped thousands forced to flee from the ongoing conflict.
The ACT/Caritas programme has constructed or rehabilitated 22 clinics and two rural hospitals, as well as establishing 120 water points and rehabilitating more than 70.
The programme has also provided simple shelter materials and kitchen sets to 65,000 households, rehabilitated 34 schools, and distributed supplementary food to 36,000 children and pregnant/lactating mothers.
