Emergencies
Having been operational in Kenya since 1968 CARE Kenya, currently carries out major initiatives in Refugee and Emergency Operations, it is the lead agency under UNHCR and WFP (for water/hygiene, food distribution, and formal education and community development) in 3 camps along the Somali border.
CARE Kenya has a fully fledged emergency and refugee operations (ERO) sector that provides support to more than 175,000 refugees in 3 refugee camps and an ongoing ECHO-funded emergency drought intervention in North Eastern Kenya. In order to ensure that the current humanitarian assistance is implemented smoothly without affecting the operations of ERO sector, an Emergency Response Team (ERT) has been formed. The ERT is led by seven senior staff members: CD, ACD Programme, ACD Support, 3 Senior Sector Managers and a Kisumu based Senior Emergency Program Officer. Quick Links
