Below are brief summary of our achievements.
Biographical and Biometric Registration
In the heart of Kapoeta North County, a vital process is underway that promises to revolutionize the way aid is distributed to crisis-affected populations. As of the 25th of March, 2024, the Nateregat center has become the epicenter of a groundbreaking initiative: the Biographical and Biometric registration of those grappling with the impacts of the ongoing crisis. Spearheaded by dedicated teams from UHDO, ADRA, and WFP, this initiative marks a significant step forward in humanitarian assistance efforts.
Streamlining Aid Distribution
The urgency of such endeavors cannot be overstated. In crisis situations, the most vulnerable populations often face numerous challenges, ranging from access to essential services to protection from exploitation and abuse.
