Norwegian Refugee Council
The
Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC) is a non-governmental, humanitarian
organization with 60 years of experience in helping to create a safer
and more dignified life for refugees and internally displaced people.
NRC advocates for the rights of displaced populations and offers
assistance within the shelter, emergency food security, and water,
sanitation and hygiene sectors.
The Norwegian Refugee Council
has approximately 5000 committed and competent employees involved in
projects across four continents. In addition, NRC runs one of the
world’s largest standby rosters, NORCAP, with 650 professionals, ready
to be deployed on 72 hours’ notice when a crisis occurs.
In
mid-April 2016, NRC conducted a pre-assessment mission in the refugee
camps in north western Tanzania and the assessment revealed that the
humanitarian situation for the refugees requires urgent intervention and

town, to respond in Mtendeli and/or Nduta refugee camps. The initial
interventions will focus in three sectors; shelter, WASH and education
(initially construction of permanent classrooms).
