L’intervention proposée réponds au priorité 1 de l’allocation des fonds de réserve – Fourniture d’une aide d’urgence au bénéfice des personnes déplacées, des retournées et des communauté hôtes. 

Le projet d’une durée de six mois vise trois secteurs à savoir la sécurité alimentaire et moyens d’existence, la nutrition et l’eau hygiène et assainissement.  A travers cette action, les populations vulnérables notamment les déplacés internes, les retournés et les populations hôtes seront appuyés dans la dignité sous l’aspect de protection transversale en prenant en compte les personnes à besoins spécifiques par le biais d'interventions en matière de sécurité alimentaire et de moyens de subsistance, de nutrition, d'eau, d'assainissement et d'hygiène. 

Le projet ciblera 4000 ménages repartaient dans six communes de la région de Tillabéry à savoir Tillabéry, Ayorou et Torodi (Couvert par Welthungerhilfe) et Ouallam, Abala et Banibangou (Couvert par ONG GARKUA). Environ 28000 personnes bénéficieront directement de l’appui du projet 30% des déplacées internes, 20% de retournées et 50% des familles hôtes.
 
La présente initiative est développée par les deux organisations International et national, sur une base de complémentarité en termes de valeur ajoutée, de présence avérée dans la zone d’intervention (Tillabéry) et de capacités organisationnelles. En effet, ces variables ont été prises en compte pour d’une part apporter une réponse intégrée et adaptée aux problèmes vécus par les groupes vulnérables et d’autre part pour plus d’efficacité et d’optimisation des ressources afin d’atteindre le maximum de bénéficier avec plus d’impact.

Projet d’Aide d’Urgence aux personnes Déplacées, Retournées et Hôtes dans le département d’Abala (PAUDRHA) Abala est l’un des départements de la région de Tillabéry, située dans la zone dite de 3 frontières instables (Mali, Niger Burkina). Les populations de ce département sont confrontées à une extrême vulnérabilité due à l'insécurité croissante dans la région et aux effets du changement climatique. Les principaux facteurs d’insécurité alimentaires identifiés dans ce département sont le déplacement forcé des populations, l'insuffisance des précipitations (avec un déficit de plus de 50% par rapport à l'année dernière), les inondations, la dégradation des ressources naturelles, la réduction des moyens de subsistance, le faible accès humanitaire, les disparités entre les sexes, etc.

En partenariat avec l’association locale ABC Ecologie et se fondant sur une approche participative, inclusive et intégrée au programme de sécurité alimentaire, de protection et d’Education de Mercy Corps en cours de mise en œuvre dans la région de Tillaberi, PAUDRHA vise à améliorer et à préserver des moyens de subsistance et le capital productif de 3000 personnes issues de 1500 ménages vulnérables, en appuyant urgemment 1200 producteurs pastoraux en petits ruminants (caprins) et en aliments de bétail  et 1800 producteurs maraichers à accéder aux intrants et formations techniques.
