SOLIDARITES INTERNATIONAL (SI) is an international humanitarian aid association which, since more than 40 years, has been providing assistance to populations affected by armed conflicts and natural disasters by meeting their basic needs for food, water and shelter. Particularly committed to the fight against diseases linked to unsafe water, the leading cause of death in the world, SI’s interventions provide expertise in the field of access to drinking water, sanitation and hygiene promotion, but also in the essential area of food security and livelihoods. Present in 26 countries, the SI teams – 3200 people in total, made up of expatriates, national staff, permanent staff at HQ, and a few volunteers – intervene with professionalism and commitment while respecting cultural norms.

About the mission

After the outbreak of the conflict in April 2023 and forced evacuation of Khartoum and West Darfur (El Geneina), SI was the first international NGO to re-enter Darfur and resume its emergency response. SI has since been working in West Darfur, Central Darfur, North Darfur, Gedaref et Khartoum, thanks to the support of SHF, CDCS, ECHO and BHA across WASH, Shelter and NFI, Food Security and Livelihood sectors.
In North Darfur, SI has one base and 2 sub-base, with 2 distinct teams. The base in Tawila (in Jabel Mara) and its sub-bases in ElFasher & ZamZam IDPs Camp (both managed remotly from Tawila) are 2 hours and half away from one another. The international team is located in Tawila and composed of : 1 Field co, 1 Adm manager, 1 Log manager, 1 Wash PM, 1 Wash Emergency PM & 1 Meal manager.

Projets on these bases cover multiple sectors (Food Assistance, WASH, Shelter/NFI), with a diversified portfolio of grants. In Tawila and the Jabel Mara, SI is supporting displaced people, mainly from El Fasher and ZamZam, through emergency operations: distribution of hygiene, shelter & NFI kits, food assistance, but also longer-term activities: agricultural support, WASH in health & school, rehabilitation of water yards, etc.

Tawila is a level 4 security base, whereas El Fasher/ZamZam , which are currently the only part of Darfur still under the control of the regular army are seeing frequent ground fighting and bombings and are as such registered as zone 5 in terms of security. Our national team is maintaining there lifesaving activities : water trucking, water supply, repair of water points, food distribution… .
