1. Story time folks before you go to bed. Photos may be a bit irrelevant, but that is to keep your interest alive.

2. Newly arrived refugees in Signature Bridge don't have cots. There are snakes around. Living under tarpaulin is not convenient as the heat increases. They are coming up with such structure to cope.
@humanaidint is proving wooden beds to all such families.

3. We had provided a month's ration to every newly arrived family. However, today they asked for more food support. I was reluctant. I said we can't provide food forever as we want to focus more on education, health, vocational training & income generation, legal assistance etc.
4. The young people said, they wanted to work but not finding opportunities. Moreover, they feel compelled to return to camp before dusk as afterwards it becomes unsafe.
I agreed to provide 15 days food but through food for work.

5. These are extremely food insecure people. They want to work to earn their food but the opportunities are not available. We are trying our best to find income generating opportunities for them. Until then, we will have to manage food for them. #refugees.
