General Protection
The Integrated Community Action Network (ICAN) aims to identify and address protection concerns and human rights violations among vulnerable internally displaced persons (IDPs) and conflict-affected individuals in targeted areas through a comprehensive protection monitoring system.
Gender-Based Violence
ICAN seeks to enhance case management by directly assisting survivors of gender-based violence (GBV) and providing immediate life-saving support to vulnerable populations. This includes comprehensive case management and psychosocial support (PSS), emergency care, and referrals to medical teams.
Child Protection
ICAN aims to ensure that girls and boys have access to adequate child protection services and are safeguarded from violence, abuse, neglect, and exploitation both at home and within the community. It also ensures that affected children receive appropriate support through the case management process.
Education
ICAN works to ensure dignified community access to quality education by collaborating with government ministries and stakeholders. Priority is given to children from vulnerable and marginalized groups, ensuring their equal rights to quality basic education with support from donors and the education cluster.
Health and Nutrition
ICAN focuses on improving sustainable nutrition and providing primary healthcare services to vulnerable communities, with a special emphasis on child and maternal health to save the lives of expectant mothers and infants.
Food security and livelihood

WASH

Tailored support for agricultural and livestock production aims to establish sustainable and resilient livelihood opportunities.
Camp Coordination
