With 7 international staff and over 80 national staff, ACTED has been working closely with local authorities and civil society stakeholders at the community level in implementing priority humanitarian interventions such as emergency multi-purpose cash assistance, WASH projects including disease monitoring and infrastructural and behavioral response, and Shelter interventions incorporating multiple modalities.

ACTED is currently implementing long-term development activities such as infrastructure rehabilitation, improving agricultural production, stimulating livelihoods development and support to state and non-state actors for improving service delivery and social stability through collective development planning.
