01.06.2014 - 31.07.2016

Due to reinforced security controls at European boarders, an increasing number of irregular migrants remain blocked in Morocco.

This project responds to a humanitarian need and offers stranded, irregular migrants the possibility to return and to be reintegrated into their countries of origin.

Reducción del riesgo de desastres

01.06.2014 - 31.12.2018

Los efectos del cambio climático y el impacto de los desastres naturales continúan afectando a los medios vulnerables de la vida rural. El Gobierno de Bolivia priorizó la seguridad alimentaria a fin de reducir la pobreza extrema por medio de un importante incremento en las inversiones públicas en sectores de recursos hídricos (represas) y desarrollo rural (sistema de riego, conservación de suelos y sistema de alerta temprana). El riesgo de fracaso de tales infraestructuras es elevado debido a la falta de  una gestión integrada de riesgos y Adaptación al Cambio Climático (CCA, por su sigla en inglés). El proyecto de la Agencia Suiza para el Desarrollo y la Cooperación (COSUDE) pretende fortalecer la resiliencia de las infraestructuras presentes y futuras en estos sectores.

15.05.2014 - 31.10.2016

Según OCHA, en Colombia, desde 1985, el número de desplazados internos debido al conflicto armado interno está entre 5.2-5.7 millones.

VSF Switzerland - Livelihood Puntland Somalia

15.05.2014 - 15.10.2015

Somalia continues to face food insecurity with more than 860'000 people in need of assistance. One of the identified reasons for this is the lack of adequate veterinary health service causing not only a decrease of available food for the local population but also hampering the high-potential livestock exports, preventing the country to develop. With this intervention along with its partner VSF, SDC aims to improve veterinary services in the semi-autonomous state of Puntland, thus improving the main livelihood of its inhabitants.
