December 2024 – The humanitarian impact of the conflict in northern Ethiopia from 2020 to 2022 continues to be felt. The Tigray region suffered significant damage, with much of its healthcare and water infrastructure damaged or destroyed. Many people remain displaced from their homes and basic services remain limited for much of the population. With GAC’s support, CARE Canada helps provide a multi-sectoral humanitarian response to critical needs in Tigray. Project activities include: (1) restoring water points and sanitation facilities; (2) supporting local health facilities; and (3) providing protection services to mitigate the increased risk of sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) for vulnerable women and girls.

The expected outcomes of this project include: (1) improved access to safe water and sanitation; (2) improved access to critical healthcare, including sexual and reproductive health and rights services; and (3) increased awareness and reduced incidence of SGBV in crisis-affected communities. The expected ultimate outcome is lives saved, suffering alleviated, and human dignity maintained in countries experiencing humanitarian crises or acute food insecurity.
