In conflict-affected regions, women play an essential role in resilience and reconstruction. Through their family ties, they are tireless influencers for peace. When they can become local economic actors, they reinvest 90% of their income back into the family, and they prioritize education: they ensure that their daughters stay in school longer.
Mentalities are evolving, new aspirations emerge, but everything is frozen by a Sahelian context of insecurity and terrorism, which forces millions of people to flee violence and prioritize survival over development.
Morija intervenes to support displaced populations in Burkina Faso by considering the importance of women and their role and by doing everything to reopen development perspectives.
In the Lindi region, where internal displacements are increasing, at the time of writing these lines, Morija is actively intervening to provide urgent support but also to promote the long-term resilience of displaced communities.
More than 21,000 people have benefited from vital food kits. Morija also seeks to promote peaceful dialogue and strengthen social cohesion within conflict-affected communities. By placing women at the heart of its humanitarian initiatives, the organization acknowledges their crucial role in community resilience and reconstruction. Their empowerment is not only a moral necessity but also an effective strategy to promote peace and stability in conflict areas.
