Sanitation and Dignity Campaign in Kassala Shelter Centers
During the 16 Days of Activism, CAFA Development Organization, in collaboration with the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC), launched a sanitation and dignity campaign in Kassala shelter centers. The campaign aimed to improve public hygiene, protect displaced families, and provide essential humanitarian support.
Representatives from local authorities and community leaders attended the campaign. Through this initiative, CAFA and NRC highlighted the importance of sanitation and dignity in shelters. The campaign ensures safer living environments for vulnerable populations affected by displacement.
Environmental Sanitation Activities
Teams conducted thorough environmental sanitation activities in all shelter centers. They removed waste, cleaned communal areas, and promoted handwashing and hygiene practices. Additionally, educational sessions informed residents about maintaining public hygiene. These efforts aim to reduce disease risk among displaced families.
Distribution of Sanitation Kits
Moreover, essential sanitation kits were distributed to all shelter residents. Kits included soap, disinfectants, and hygiene supplies. By providing these kits, CAFA and NRC enabled families to maintain cleanliness and prevent illnesses. This initiative demonstrates effective humanitarian support for displaced communities.
Dignity Kits for Women and Girls
In addition, women and girls received dignity kits tailored to their needs. Kits contained sanitary pads, towels, and other personal hygiene items. Providing these kits helps maintain dignity and well-being under challenging conditions. Furthermore, it ensures access to vital resources for vulnerable groups in shelters.
Ongoing Humanitarian Support and Community Engagement
Furthermore, the sanitation and dignity campaign in Kassala shelter centers reflects ongoing humanitarian support from CAFA and NRC. Through continuous collaboration, the organizations improve living conditions and protect the rights of displaced families. In addition, volunteers provide guidance on safe hygiene practices and community health.
Finally, the campaign emphasizes long-term solutions. It strengthens awareness of sanitation, encourages public hygiene, and fosters safer, healthier environments in shelters. Consequently, residents gain both immediate relief and knowledge to sustain hygiene practices independently.
