Helping to meet the immediate needs of refugees in Mission Armenia’s Centres

Since the 19th September, with the renewal of conflict in Nagorno Karabakh, over 100,000 ethnic Armenian refugees have fled to Armenia. Responding to this humanitarian crisis, Action Against Hunger, in partnership with People in Need and Mission Armenia, have been providing a wide array of support to these refugees. In the aftermath of this displacement, this support has focused on the immediate needs of the refugees through the provision of pre-paid supermarket cards which they can use to purchase essential items such as food, hygiene products and household items. These cards enable people to exert a higher level of agency in the selection of such supplies.
