ARD provides timely, community-based humanitarian assistance to people affected by conflict, displacement, drought and other emergencies.
Conflict, displacement, drought and recurring humanitarian crises leave vulnerable families without reliable access to food, water and other basic necessities.
ARD works with affected communities, local authorities and partners to identify urgent needs and deliver practical, timely assistance while protecting the dignity of those affected.
Our programme prioritises internally displaced people, vulnerable families, women, children, older people, people with disabilities and communities facing acute humanitarian needs.
Providing essential assistance to families affected by emergencies, displacement and crisis.
Supporting vulnerable households with food and other essential assistance during periods of acute need.
Providing safe water to communities affected by drought, displacement and disruptions to essential services.
Working with internally displaced families and host communities to address immediate needs and strengthen their capacity to recover.
In March 2025, ARD, in partnership with DEDO, delivered Ramadan food assistance to vulnerable families across Baidoa. More than 120 households facing acute economic hardship received essential food support, helping families meet immediate food needs during Ramadan.
