This donation was made in memory of Saverio Micheletta who had resided in Rome, Italy.  He and his family are supporters of INTERSOS.

I know from boots on the ground that the work InterSOS does in Chad is saving lives, and that's why I'm making this donation.

Protecting the most vulnerable on the front line of humanitarian emergencies

INTERSOS is a humanitarian organization on the front line of emergencies to help people affected by war, violence, natural disasters, and extreme exclusion.  
 
We guarantee access to medical care, clean water, and proper sanitation; we respond to basic needs, such as food and shelter; we identify and treat cases of malnutrition; we protect and assist victims of violence; we support children and, in particular, unaccompanied and separated children, building educational spaces and places for socialization in war zones. 

Your support of INTERSOS goes directly to the front line, where it's needed most. Thank you! 
 
"Our operators are committed to providing humanitarian aid to the victims of war and natural disasters daily. They are always ready to protect the most vulnerable and guarantee humanitarian access to the most remote zones of crisis areas, reaching an increasing number of people in need. This is the strength of INTERSOS, an organization of women and men who choose to be on the side of humanity. On the front line, always".

Since 20 September, Lebanon has been experiencing the effects of a dramatic escalation of the war between Israel and Hezbollah. This wave of violence is taking its toll on Lebanese civilians with **over 100.000 newly displaced people in just a few days.**

Our teams are working right now to bring urgent aid to the population in distress.

We support **collective shelters** in Mount Lebanon and the Bekaa to make them suitable for displaced people. We are distributing **hygiene kits** to displaced Lebanese in the Bekaa, and giving **cash support** to those who have lost everything to meet their immediate needs. We provide **psychosocial support,** particularly to women and children, to face the trauma and the challenges of this situation.

We are also monitoring the needs of the Syrian refugee population currently displaced in the streets or who decided to stay behind in currently unsafe areas, and we are continuing to remotely support the most vulnerable cases we were following in Tyre before the security situation in the country deteriorated.

Lebanon: Emergency Relief to the displaced population

Children should never be left alone. But thousands of them are. And their life is in danger. 

Unaccompanied and separated children (UASC) are minors left alone due to conflicts, forced displacement, or natural disasters. They are particularly vulnerable. They are separated from their families and deprived of much-needed protection and support. They are at risk of abuse and exploitation, and their life is often threatened. They are forced to abandon school and education. They are often compelled to assume the responsibility of primary caretaker for younger siblings. 

INTERSOS protects and assists unaccompanied and separated children in several emergency situations, and currently… 

In Chad, we extend our assistance to those affected by the decade-long conflict around Lake Chad and respond to the new emergency caused by internal conflict in Sudan, that forced over 300,000 refugees to cross the eastern border in search of protection.
 
In Niger, we support unaccompanied minors who have fled the war in Libya and are now facing growing internal instability and the consequences of the July 2023 coup and international sanctions.

In Libya, amidst limited humanitarian access and the impact of extreme weather events, we created safe spaces for vulnerable minors named Baity ("My Home"). Baity centers are located in Tripoli and the southern city of Sebah.

Building on a decade of commitment, INTERSOS continues to ensure the protection of unaccompanied minors in Italy with a mobile outreach team in informal settlements in Rome and Greece, particularly Athens. 

Our dedication remains steadfast in providing care and support to those who need it most.

INTERSOS' support to unaccompanied children

Afghanistan deals with the consequences of four decades of conflict and **the humanitarian crisis in the country is worse than ever.** The economic crisis, drought, and other climate change-related problems exacerbate the fragilities associated with protracted internal instability and international isolation. Over 20 million people, more than half of the Afghan population, need urgent humanitarian assistance during 2024.

To deal with this extremely complex humanitarian crisis, INTERSOS’ strategy is to prioritize the most urgent humanitarian problems such as **widespread food insecurity and malnutrition**, which mainly affects children and women, the **lack of access to health care, particularly for women** – some rural areas are in fact more than two hours away from the nearest health facility – and problems related to the **humanitarian protection** of individuals or groups exposed to various forms of vulnerability and exclusion, and therefore more at risk of suffering physical and psychological damage. 

We support communities in Kabul, Kandahar, and Zabul Provinces,

More specifically, in terms of **health assistance**, we provide medical consultations, medicines, referrals to specialized services when needed, support to the local health system on immunization, as well as maternal, emergency and trauma services. Moreover, our medical staff offers nutritional programs for children and pregnant and lactating women. 

Additionally, in terms of protection, we ensure individual case management, mental health, and psychosocial support services. We support survivors of gender-based violence and promote economic and entrepreneurial support for women. Children’s safe spaces ensure a safe environment for minors at risk.
