Acted Democratic Republic of the Congo The Democratic Republic of the Congo faces a prolonged humanitarian crisis, characterized by persisting armed conflicts, massive population displacements, repeated climatic and epidemic shocks (including cholera, mpox and measles). These combined dynamics durably impact the living conditions of displaced, returned, and host populations, especially in the eastern areas and some western areas of the country. In this context, Acted mainly operates in the provinces of South Kivu, North Kivu, Tanganyika, North Ubangi and South Ubangi, through projects funded mainly by US Department of State, ECHO, FCDO, SDC, Humanitarian Fund, and the CDCS, to respond to immediate humanitarian needs and persisting vulnerabilities of the populations most affected. To strengthen the reach and complementarity of its interventions, Acted acts in coordination with several operational partners, and is a member of humanitarian consortia. This coordination allows Acted to implement swift and multisectoral emergency responses to cover vital needs linked to the conflicts, forced displacements, natural disasters and health crises. Mostly, interventions focus on food assistance, shelter,
