The International Rescue Committee (IRC) responds to the world’s worst humanitarian crises and helps people to survive and rebuild their lives. Founded in 1933, the IRC offers lifesaving care and life-changing assistance to refugees forced to flee from war or disaster. At work today in over 40 countries and 22 U.S. cities, we restore safety, dignity and hope to millions who are uprooted and struggling to endure. The IRC leads the way from harm to home.
BACKGROUND
As of April 2012, the IRC sent an Emergency Response Team to Mali and Niger to begin assessing needs and gaps in the light of the most recent drought as well as conflict in the north of Mali. The needs of IDPs affected by conflict are widespread and the issue of humanitarian access is an urgent one.
The IRC is launching a response to the drought crisis in the south, programs to support those affected by conflict in the north as well as a response for the Malian refugees in Niger.
