**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

Following 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.
In February 2024, SI opened a base in North Darfur to provide emergency assistance to populations, as very few humanitarian organizations were operational in the state. Similarly, SI opened an office in Zalingei, Central Darfur in November 2024. Today, thanks to the support of SHF, CDCS, ECHO and BHA, activities are being implemented in West Darfur, Central Darfur, North Darfur, Gedaref and Khartoum States across WASH, Shelter and NFI support, Food Security and Livelihood sectors.
In West Darfur, the main share of the portfolio remains WASH with the provision of water through water trucking, rehabilitation of water points/water yards, borehole drilling, hygiene promotion, sanitation (emergency latrine construction, semi-permanent latrine, showers, desludging), solid waste management, WASH NFI distribution, and WASH in Health etc. Besides, SI implements food assistance mostly through cash and voucher modalities. West Darfur team also implements agricultural support activities (seeds distribution, provision of tools, training) as well as market strengthening support.
In Central Darfur. The activities mostly focus on WASH and CVA. SI also has an Emergency Response Team based in Zalingei, Central Darfur, roving across Central and West Darfur, implementing rapid responses in WASH, Shelter/NFI and Food (CVA).
In the Eastern part of the country, SI is present with Wash and FSL activities in Gedaref and Khartoum, under CDCS and BHA funds, and should soon deploy new Wash activities in the state of Jazeera.
Most of the programs are being implemented in Consortium, including 2 led by SI, and require strong coordination efforts to provide area-based interventions. SI also has a strong localization approach, with diverse local partners in all states.
