Our commitment to access to water and sanitation

Food security and nutrition

RENAF also works to strengthen food security and improve the nutritional status of vulnerable populations.

The actions implemented aim to reduce malnutrition and strengthen families' food self-sufficiency.

WASH

Displaced families expressed relief at the newly secured access to clean water and sanitation facilities, emphasising the importance of WASH interventions in preventing epidemics, as access to clean water was previously almost non-existent. These actions have contributed to improving community health and quality of life.
