ACTED Niger

The conflicts in northern Mali and the Lake Chad crisis have caused major population movements towards the Diffa and Tillabéry regions. Acted is responding to the humanitarian needs of particularly vulnerable displaced populations, whose influx is weighing on preexisting basic services and natural resources of the host populations. Acted teams have been operating in Niger since 2010, implementing programmes to ensure people’s access to water and sanitation services as well as providing support to build economic and agricultural resilience.
