Humanitarian Response
Pakistan is a country prone to disasters both man-made and natural. Disaster can hit anyone at any time. Pakistan has been facing various disasters and given the poverty profile of the country, whereby people are already struggling to survive, the hardships increase when a disaster strikes. Women, children and old people are among the worst affected population.
Mojaz Foundation help disaster hit communities cope with crises through emergency relief, early recover and disaster risk reduction. We help people respond, prepare, and recover from disasters. During a disaster, Mojaz coordinates with UN clusters and other organization to prepare a better response for the affected. Consulting with women and men in any emergency for rapid need assessment helps us design the program catering to the specific needs of all. Committees of the active people are formed to help Mojaz in identifying those severely affected, and in reaching out to the most vulnerable and marginalized. These committees also act as volunteers in various interventions and help us monitor our work and approach. Last but not the least, these committees also help in conflict resolution and complaint redressal ( a comprehensive system to lodge a complaint and it redressal).
We also work with communities, particularly women, to help them prepare for future crises through our DRR initiatives. It is a long road to recovery after a disaster hits. Our work is done when livelihoods are rebuilt and communities are prepared for future crises.
Strategic Objective:
To immediately respond in humanitarian crisis, and to protect vulnerable people affected by conflict and disasters by way of emergency relief and recovery. Contribute to SDG 11.5 of Goal 11: By 2030, significantly reduce the number of deaths and the number of people affected and substantially decrease the direct economic losses relative to global gross domestic caused by disasters, including water related disasters with a focus on protecting the poor and people in vulnerable situations. We provide support in the areas of emergency shelter, food distribution, temporary shelter, cash for work, health camps, WASH and Nutrition.
