Danish Refugee Council - Calls

The Danish Refugee Council (DRC), with funding from various donors, invites all suppliers to participate in tendering for the supply of Medical Insurance Services.

As the Syrian Crisis enters its seventh year, close to four million displaced Syrians are living in neighboring countries. Lebanon has absorbed 1.2 million Syrian refugees, which has resulted in mounting pressures on overstretched public infrastructure, services, and resources. Hosting populations have progressively suffered from declining living standards, livelihood opportunities and access to quality basic services as the crisis has moved from an emergency state to its current protracted situation. Initial charitable sentiments and generosity toward the refugee populations are eroding and growing social volatility in the region is contributing to inter-communal tensions, political unpredictability, and economic stagnation. While the Syrian influx has exacerbated socioeconomic cleavages in both Lebanon, it has certainly not created them and renewed attention on addressing the root problems of these challenges is needed to move beyond the short-term gap-filling assistance that has characterized the Syria Crisis response to date. Women and youth are disproportionately affected and opportunities to access sustainable livelihoods and participate in public debate and policy decisions are particularly limited, leading to growing frustrations. Recent reports have highlighted a generalized discontent among refugees and host communities with regard to the international and national responses to the crisis across the region, citing in particular a lack of transparency in aid provision, weak impact on preparation for future crises as well as low levels of community input in aid planning and delivery.

The Danish Refugee Council assists refugees and internally displaced persons across the globe: we provide emergency aid, fight for their rights, and strengthen their opportunity for a brighter future. We work in conflict-affected areas, along the displacement routes, and in the countries where refugees settle. In cooperation with local communities, we strive for responsible and sustainable solutions. We work toward successful integration and – whenever possible – for the fulfillment of the wish to return home.  

The Danish Refugee Council was founded in Denmark in 1956, and has since grown to become an international humanitarian organization with more than 7,000 staff and 8,000 volunteers. Our vision is a dignified life for all displaced. 
All of our efforts are based on our value compass: humanity, respect, independence and neutrality, participation, and honesty and transparency.
