Pwogram imanitè NRC 2021-2025/6

Ministry of Foreign Affairs, DG ECHO, UNHCR, etc. are the largest contributors, besides a dozen of other donors in agreement with NRC. Sida provides NRC with the opportunity to allocate resources flexibly within individual country programmes (Programme-Based Approach – PBA). NRC's catalytic support for coordination and capacity building contributes greatly to the link between humanitarian aid, development and peace. NRC's advocacy work and activities enable, at least contribute to, sustainable solutions for refugees and displaced people in a significant way in cooperation with other actors. In the long run, the NRC will reduce humanitarian needs. The NRC prioritizes self-sufficiency in its programs. The NRC's analysis capability, not least through its Internal Displacement Monitoring Center (IDMC), is an advantage for relevant programming according to the nexus orientations. Among the 26 crises in NRC's portfolio that Sida prioritizes, there are 15 where Sida implements Sweden's development strategies in synergy with humanitarian aid. Sida’s contribution to NRC for 2022 will cover around 6.5% of NRC’s total financial requirements of the supported programmes and projects. It will provides humanitarian services to almost 9 million persons (53% female). HUM adds 50 MSEK for NRC's 2022 country programme in Ukraine benefiting 90,000 people with protection, shelter, WaSH and cash assistance. Decision 5 April. Amendment nr. 5. HUM adds 7.5 MSEK for NRC's 2022 country programme in Cameroon from the 2022 mid-year allocation (food security, legal advice for 600 households/4200 individuals in Logone-et-Chari, Mayo Sava and Mayo Tsanaga). Decision 9 June 2022. Contract amendment No 6. HUM adds 10 MSEK for NRC's 2022 country programme in South Sudan from the end-of-the-year allocation. Decision 16 November 2022 nr 2022-002341.

Advocacy and support to humanitarian coordination and durable solution to displacements working groups in the field are part of NRC's engagement that Sida is funding. NRC's annual budget 2023 in the settings and thematics prioritized by Sida amounts to 5620 million Norwegian crowns in total. Sida's share weighs so far 8% of it: NRC's third largest donor whose cumulated 2021-2025 grant is 80% softly earmarked (programme-based approach) and 34% multi-year. Earlier granted multi-year funding for 2023 was disbursed in January (52 MSEK) in support to continued humanitarian operations in DR [name withheld], Mali and Nigeria with strong emphasis on emergency response.
