Oxfam hygiene and shelter kits are transported in country boats for distribution to affected communities across marooned villages in Morigaon, AssamSupport communities facing a huge humanitarian crisis
The North-Eastern state of Assam is reeling under the impact of “twin disasters'' -- even as the flood survivors are struggling to make both ends meet in the relief camps, lakhs of people have been displaced by the conflict in the State.
The floods have affected over 20 lakh people and another 4 lakh have been displaced due to conflict. The flood survivors and people affected by conflict are staying in relief camps where there is urgent need for water, sanitation and hygiene support. Lack of these is leading to death and disease.
People in Assam urgently need clean water, shelter and hygiene. You can give them a lifeline.
Oxfam India is reaching out to the affected population to:
- Provide clean, safe drinking water by building or repairing water sources
- Rehabilitate water and sanitation facilities in the camps
- Help people in the camps to have appropriate emergency shelter especially women and children
- Provide safe sanitation and hygiene conditions in the camps especially for women and children
