      "October 2024 – Haiti and Colombia continue to experience deteriorating humanitarian conditions, with high levels of needs cutting across all regions and sectors. Estimates reveal that about 8.3 million people face humanitarian needs in Colombia in 2024 due to the impacts of ongoing conflict, displacement, food insecurity and climate-induced disasters. Haiti remains impacted by decades of political, social and economic challenges, exacerbated by natural disasters and gang violence. As a result, an estimated 5.5 million people need humanitarian assistance. With GAC’s support, Canadian Lutheran",
      "February 2022 - The conflict in northern Ethiopia is well into its second year and has given rise to one of the worst humanitarian crises in the world. An estimated 9.4 million people in the three conflict-affected states currently require humanitarian assistance, including up to 90% of the population of the Tigray region. Displacement, disruption of livelihoods, and constraints on humanitarian access have left at least 400,000 people facing famine conditions and human rights abuses, including widespread sexual violence, have marked the conflict since its outset. With GAC’s support, Canadian",
      "March 2018 – Uganda hosts the largest number of refugees in Africa, more than 1.4 million, with roughly two thirds of them having arrived from South Sudan since July 2016. This large and rapid influx has strained the humanitarian response capacity in northern Uganda to near breaking. New refugee settlements almost immediately reach full capacity, while service providers struggle to meet the most basic needs of the community. Overall, South Sudanese make up more than three quarters of the refugee population in Uganda (more than 1 million people). With GAC’s support, the Canadian Lutheran World",
      "March 2019 – Drought and inter-communal conflict are expected to leave at least 8 million Ethiopians in need of humanitarian assistance, including nearly 2.9 million people displaced by violence and natural disasters. Internally displaced populations are amongst the most vulnerable in Ethiopia, living in nearly 1,200 informal settlements, often extremely remote and with almost no access to food or basic services. In addition, Ethiopia hosts more than 900,000 refugees reliant on humanitarian assistance to meet their basic needs. With GAC’s support, the Canadian Lutheran World Relief (CLWR) is",
      "February 2021 – Uganda currently hosts the largest number of refugees in Africa, and the fourth largest in the world, more than 1.4 million people, primarily from South Sudan and the Democratic Republic of Congo. Most of these live in settlements in Uganda’s remote northern and western regions, relying on humanitarian assistance to meet their essential needs. Protection is a particular concern, as the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has further exacerbated inequities related to gender, age, and other factors already felt within the displaced population. With GAC’s support, Canadian Lutheran W",
      "March 2021 – A complex combination of vulnerability to armed conflict, inter-communal tension, protracted displacement, and food insecurity characterizes the humanitarian situation in Myanmar. An estimated one million crisis-affected people require humanitarian assistance this year, including more than 336,000 displaced people across the country. Humanitarian organizations operate in an increasingly complex environment, including as a result of the recent military coup. With GAC’s support, Canadian Lutheran World Relief and its local partner, Lutheran World Federation Myanmar, improve access",
      "March 2020 - Uganda hosts the largest number of refugees in Africa, and the third largest in the world, close to 1.4 million people, primarily from South Sudan and the Democratic Republic of Congo. Most of the refugees are women and children, who are almost wholly reliant on international assistance to meet their basic needs. Although gaps exist across all sectors of the humanitarian response, protection is particularly critical to address needs arising from sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) experienced while fleeing conflict, and often continuing in the refugee settlements. With GAC’s",
      "January 2019 - The humanitarian situation in Myanmar is characterized by a complex combination of vulnerability to natural disasters, armed conflict, inter-communal tension, statelessness and displacement. It is estimated that 941,000 crisis-affected women, men, girls and boys will be in need of humanitarian assistance this year. With GAC’s support, Canadian Lutheran World Relief (CLWR) is responding to the critical and urgent needs of internally displaced people (IDPs) in Sittwe and Pauktaw Townships in Central Rakhine, Myanmar. Project activities include: (1) providing hygiene and dignity k",
      "March 2020 – The humanitarian situation in Myanmar is characterized by a complex combination of vulnerability to armed conflict, inter-communal tension, protracted displacement and food insecurity. It is estimated that 985,000 crisis-affected people are in need of humanitarian assistance this year, including more than 273,000 displaced people (of which 69% are women and children) who remain in camps or camp-like settings across the country. With GAC’s support, Canadian Lutheran World Relief and its local partner, Lutheran World Federation Myanmar, are providing clean drinking water, non-food"
