How CAFOMI is responding to Kasese Crisis

About the humanitarian catastrophe in Kasese and how CAFOMI is addressing the emergency needs on the ground.

More than a thousand people were left homeless after floods and landslides that hit Kasese district in May 2024, leaving many displaced and in dire need of shelter, food and safety.

Care and Assistance for Forced Migrants (CAFOMI) in partnership with Malteser International with funds from German Federal Foreign Office, is currently providing drinking water to the affected persons. But more support is required, CAFOMI seeks for support both in-kind donations and Cash to assist the affected communities.

CAFOMI and the University of Dar es Salaam (UDSM) Research Chair on Forced Displacement also conducted a community outreach program at the IDP camp. Focus of the discussion during the outreach was on Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR), the affected persons were trained on climate change, adaptation and mitigation with emphasis on sustainable management of land and the environment.

CAFOMI continues to share more advisories to keep the community informed and safe.
